My devices keep going offline
What could be causing my devices to keep going offline? This is an intermittent issue.

It's not required but DHCP can lose the mapping to the printer manager of the printer. The first step to troubleshoot is a static address.
I'm unsure about the DVR...perhaps an IP conflict with the printer and Contour can't inform you of the conflict.
I was going to suggest a static IP, or at least a DHCP reservation, but I don't think that will work with a DVR and a gateway. Maybe Cox can see the logs remotely and tell what's going on.
I also wonder if this has anything to do with WMM power save. The DVR and Printer are two devices that would be connected but in a idle state for long periods of time.
Yes...all that. Printers use a lot of power, go into a deep sleep and lose its IP.
Why is the router assigning an IP to a DVR? A cable-box would be on a different network. Must be a wireless cable-box.
