Thanks for the realistic take on the situation I'm having, I appreciate it.
As for the suggestion to get a 3.1 is it really that big of difference if I mostly stream videos along with have zoom calls several times a week for work (I'm not a gamer etc)?
How much of a difference DOCSIS 3.1 makes on slower speed plans is baesd on the level of congestion on the node. DOCSIS 3.1 allows for more QAM channels and also for OFDM which can carry a lot more data. It's also good to keep your modem current because it makes it harder for Cox to blame the modem. Anyone who subscribes to cable internet should basically budget to buy a new modem every 4 years or so, just to keep up with technology. Same as anything else. If you keep up with technology you have a better experience.
