Okay, lets be honest from the start the TG1682G is junk. It should be set to bridge mode and your router should be doing everything else. Hopefully you have a decent router that has better wireless capabilities than the TG1682G. On that note what router do you have? Can't diagnose this with limited information about your hardware setup. Need to include brand name, model and what you use each device for.

Probably an issue with your modem then. Based on how good your router is compared to what the modem provides I would have set the modem to bridge mode and used the wireless router for everything else.
Anyways, get with Cox and see if you can swap out your current modem for an Arris TM3402 eMTA. A Cox employee posted on dslreports.com forum that as of 10/01/2018 the TM3402 is available to everyone on all tiers. This modem was previously only available on the Gigablast tier.

Here's what mine looks like compared to yours. You can obviously see the difference in ms (milliseconds).
