Same here in northwest las vegas, FCC complaint filed, have a tech coming over tomorrow for a line verification. Before the covid crisis it was happening daily between 5PM-10PM. Now it's more like noon to midnight. odog on dslreports said there was some construction commencing on 3/11 on my leg of the cox network (i assume a node split). Still hasn't improved. odog said it was possibly was put off because of the covid pandemic and is checking for me. Hopefully they find something tomorrow, but doubt it. Century link fiber is across the street from me. I'd love to switch.
Here's my original dslreports thread:

I would not account for it being put off on the COVID crisis. Cox used all resources in Arizona to install fiber to offer new packages versus maintaining the current network and then continued to sell packages they cant support on nodes heavily over saturated. My nodes 85% over saturated and that came directly from an executive escalation case manager. Yet I can call in right now with my neighbors address who does not have Cox and ask to sign up for gigablast and they will sell it to me no questions asked.
They should stop selling gigablast immediately, downgrade everyone back to 300 and admit to making a mistake.
Bingo, the likely hood that happens without government intervention or media intervention is about 0.
