I see my modem has 2 ethernet ports - does Cox allow me to connect both of them and get different MAC addresses?
No. The two ethernet connections are for setting up LAG for faster then 1Gbps speed. See here for more info. In order to use each connection to a separate device you would need Cox Business for more then 1 public IP address. Good idea though.
There was a time when residential customer could get 2 IP addresses, the second port would allow for a second router. Also business customers CAN get 2 IP addresses, and can use both ports.
Wasn't it called Multiple Computer Access(MCA) or something? My memory is a little hazy. It cost extra money right?
yup it was 9.95 a months, MCA
