Hi BlueGirl,
Providing some additional details will help the members of the forum assist you better. What type of device are you trying to add to your home network? Are you getting an error message when you try to add the device?
Thank you,

Hi Michael, thank you for the reply. I can certainly provide more details but I think if the answer to the question, "can the Cox panoramic Wi-Fi router connect on 802.11b?" is "no" then no further explanation (or frustration) would be needed. :-/ The challenge is in the router not in the device.
More details:
I am trying to connect a Fitbit Aria scale (gen 1) that specifically states it requires 802.11b protocol. From what I can determine on the Cox site, the router comes out of the box ready with a and c protocols. So I am trying to determine if it is possible to reconfigure the modem somehow so that it will connect to my device?
Appreciate your feedback. :-)
I read some customers' requests for help and this is an odd device. I recommend researching a solution on the Aria Forum.
Note: The Panoramic supports 802.11ac...not a and c.
Try these procedures:
