    Hello Spy3er,

    The V3.01.16 has not been approved by Cox, and the current Firmware is the recommended version. We can attempt to upgrade firmware, though it would interrupt service. If the upgrade makes matters worse for you, then performing a factory reset by holding the reset button for 7 seconds would restore default.
