cox or your router?
- jd3mrtn5 years agoNew Contributor
My system is the Cox Router Panoramic with WiFi that was set up by the technician on the day my service was activated. Now this problem has been going on since the beginning of my account set up. I'm usually not home much and didn't constantly fight for a resolution. But now I have to work from home so I need to know if any fix is possible?
When the technician first set this up, I remember it took a very long time like over 30 minutes to get a connection to my unit. My worry is the old wiring in the unit or an old box. Somehow the signal is just not stable by the time it reaches me.
The only place in my apartment for a connection is in the living room. So yes Wifi is all I use.
Thank you for your reply. My work from home begins next Monday.

call cox, they should be able to check levels.

In the router settings, experiment with switching the broadcast channel of the router to bands with less competition. Once you change the channel and ave it To do this with the Panoramic Gateway, you can log into www.cox.com/mywifi and look for Network Settings and then look for show advanced settings. If you have Cox Complete Care, they will be able to walk you through this option as well. Thanks, Lisa, Cox Support Forums Moderator
