Having the same issue here... wasted all day rebooting and with much more frequency than in the past. Now I can no longer get past the Welcome banner and the Contour "boot'... I even tried resetting from the "Cox Connect" iPhone app hoping it was just an bad system update. To no avail. Seemed to work for an evening but this morning right back to the same *** issue. Nothing has changed on my side. No splitters added and the such. May just take the Contour back and get a replacement unit.

If you still getting the error after trying that please email the full-service address and name to cox.help@cox.com so we can check the signal levels.

        Too add... I just took one of the mini-boxes and hooked it up to the Contour connections and we have a picture w/sound.
