I wouldn't recommend connecting 2 routers so close to each other as that could cause a lot of wifi interference between the two. I'm surprised that you were provided this modem instead of a stand-alone modem as this type of modem would typically need to be rented from us (that is the modem that is used for the panoramic service). We may need to look over the account to make sure this wasn't put in as a panoramic rental. Please email us at cox.help@cox.com with a link to this thread so that we can investigate this for you.
