Most nodes at this time are oversaturated because of the coronavirus pandemic. This will cause bandwidth problems because a lot more people in your neighborhood will be accessing the internet. I have been dealing with these problems since September 2019 and have replaced my modem with 4 different ones and no change.Had 5 techs out and all cabling replaced from modem to tap. Filled an FCC complaint and they admitted there was node issues and no plan on fixing this year. Although I don't care about speed I care about stable internet without latency spikes which also happens with oversaturated nodes.
Same... just got told again I need a tech out but now they are trying to get me to pay for the protection service to avoid a $75 charge in case it is found not to be a COX issue. What a crock!
