    Hello Rbrozene. Does your device see the wireless network? Also, is this happening with multiple devices in the home? -Allan Cox Support Forums Moderator

    My devices (2) see the internet as does your own agent when I called support.  None of us on any device can get the My WIFI to work.  We all get the messages shown at the title of this posting.

      Hi Rbrozene, your modem is reporting poor signal levels and minor packet loss. It's possible that the signal impairment is severe enough to completely disrupt your ability to access WiFi. Make sure the coax connection to the outlet and your cable modem are finger-tight. Are there any splitters or extra connectors on the coax cable to the modem? If possible, remove them, reset the modem, and see if your connectivity improves. A service call will likely be needed to resolve these issues. If you'd like my team to schedule an appointment for you, please email your full name, address, and a link to this thread to cox.help@cox.com. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator

        Interesting conclusions Becky.

        All the connections are tight and there are no splitters.  On your speed test, I'm getting 100% of my service.  I watch slingbox, netflix and other services thru my smart tv internet connection with no problems and never experienced a "disruption" to my service.  The ONLY thing I and your support cannot do is access your My WIFI page.  I find that odd.

        Will I be charged for a service call?
