Hi @ROman
If you have the Panoramic Wifi App installed I would like to share with you some tips to help optimize your network, as your modem is a smart modem and will toggle networks. Although it gives you faster speeds the 5GHz band has the shorter wavelengths and higher frequency meaning that it is not good for long-range connections. The 2.4GHz band has slower speeds but a longer wavelength making it more stable at longer distances. Most cameras will only hook on to the 2.4GHz band. I would suggest downloading the Cox Panoramic Wifi App if you want to give your networks two different names. The link provided here should assist you: www.cox.com/.../cox-panoramic-wifi-app-features.html .
