It's all the people using the internet on the incapable aged infrastructure that Cox employs.
Our internet keeps going in and out for the last hour
Yeah, mine went out 4 times today. Can't play games at all, and streaming is spotty.

- Hello Patt,
Thank you for contacting Cox Forum Support. When you lose connection are you connecting wired or wireless? What lights are showing on the modem?

I am also getting 150 ms+ trying to play League as well!! I can't play Fortnite either, I am experiencing heavy packet loss. I have Gigablast internet too using a wired connection on cox' panoramic modem. Average download speed before recently was 900+ mbps, now it drops down to 42 mbps.
I am getting a 2 mbps download and a 2 upload speed. Cox is sucking lately.

Its not "his slow speeds" we are ALL having slow speeds right now & its not anything WE are doing or our equipment that is the problem. We dont need your technical support to tell us to check our speeds or wiring, thats not the problem. We understand that theres a huge rise in people being home & online, which is slowing all of our speeds, but why are we still paying the same price for an internet that is almost unusable? Yes we got a small credit but Im still paying $120 (usually $177) for an unusable internet even after that credit. Thats not okay.
same here, i paid for the preferred 150 Mbps plan and I'm getting 10-20 Mbps per speedtest. All games are rubber banding like crazy. Yet they're still charging me for full price and not providing the services.
Yea I am having the same issue. I cant play league with 150ms and Apex Legends is unplayable because I rubber-band so bad. Any solutions? I just ran a speed test and got 44 down...

I understand that its like covid-19 and stuff, but when I am paying near $100 and cant play games I think you should either fix it or compensate??
