I’m having the same problem in CA. If I trick the update and don’t let it update the box works fine. If I let it update it sticks on the B in boot. I have to unplug and plug about five times to get it going. Have they fixed yours? I’m ready to leave them too after forty years. I might swap out the box tomorrow, and the modem after that.
Good luck.

Of course they haven't fixed mine. Shockingly the guy never brought the other box back on Saturday. I chatted with someone on Saturday & all they did was try to do the same thing everyone else has done. So, after almost 2 hours of chatting, I quit. We got rid of their modem long ago, because I got tired of paying them even more money, so we got our own. Our box hasn't even updated because it won't come on. It has power, but either does nothing or stays at the welcome screen. So, we are now a week without cable that I'm still paying for. So, I think we are officially done with cox. We've just has enough of their bull crap!!

Mine is still out too. The last time that they came out years ago , they sent a fat guy that went up in my attic and he stepped on my clothes hanging system and broke it when he came back down. I swore that they would never enter my home again. I think that I’m going with Dish. Not many options here.

I only had to unplug and replug the box three times to get it going tonight. It’s getting better. If I could turn the update off, it would work fine.
