Downgrade your plan to its consistent measurement hardwired to the modem: 500 Mbps.
Your wireless measurements is a different story. Routers are equal-opportunity bandwidth-sharers so the more devices connected during a measurement, the less the measurement.
If i downgrade i have to pay more which is stupid plus moreso the issue is inconsistent upload speeds...downloads are an issue but I'm a streamer and need the consistent upload

How does a lower-bandwidth plan cost more? Did you sign to a promotional deal? If so, the deal may be invalid because Cox isn't fulfilling their obligation.
There is a 300/30 Mbps (Ultimate Classic) for a similar upload.

A promotion is a contract. If you keep it, no penalties. However, if Cox can't fulfill it, you should be able to void it. No, you won't get the upload speeds (because Cox fails to provide it), but you won't be paying a higher price for gigabit service if you downgrade.
