I have been experiencing the same issue, went and both two new modems and routers all doing the same thing so issue isn’t on my end. Did anyone find a solution?

    How often are you seeing this message? If you're seeing it a few times a week it's harmless. Every cable network is going to get a momentary glitch every now and then. If you're seeing it several times per hour you probably need Cox to check for intermittent noise on the line.

      As it as often as every 30 mins and experience packet loss at all times or lag spikes. At this point it’s pretty much unusable especially at night time.

        But no other messages such as T3 timeouts?

      I cant even tell you that because I keep losing access to 192.168.100.1

      only way i get it back is by  power cycling and that clears my logs

      I got a new modem, mb8600 - upstream power levels are 43-44 now as recommended by the latest tech visit. still getting dynamic range window violations but i do not know how often. I can only see the couple I get within a few hours and then I am unable to reach my modem UI ip address..

      this is a mess. i really wish i could get an answer and a fix
