The modem is less than two months old, all connections have been tested and check out, cable in house and to modem are brand new and all connection issues have been traced to ipv4 address 68.1.5.140 which is not on my local network, server name dalsbprj02-ae1.0.rd.dl.cox.net. So want to tell me again it's on my end? I probably have more experience than everyone in your support center combined. Perhaps instead of trying to blame the customer's equipment you'd better serve your customer base by ensuring your own equipment is operating properly.
And I've figured out the problem, running a trace route to the IP address assigned to my modem immediately after it went down today showed that IP address as well as the DNS server address it was assigned by being located in Hong Kong, which suggests that your servers are being hacked for signal interception. This is a massive security risk.
- Kenneth, your signal levels are outside of our normal parameters. I am not certain if the issue is being caused by your equipment or not, and a service technician will be able to diagnose and correct the problem while in the home. The network does not appear to be properly transmitting the signal to your home, and I believe this may be causing intermittent connectivity. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator
Obviously my "signal levels" are outside your normal parameters, I'm showing I somehow used 10GB of data yesterday when my modem isn't even connected. I've been using my phone's data through tethering for internet access.
- Hi Kenneth H. We would be glad to verify this. Please contact us via Facebook, Twitter or via cox.help@cox.com. Thanks, Lisa - Cox Support Forums Moderator
