Several cox customers in my service area see the same message. Channel 18 Estrella TV is not missing from my channel line up. It is still in the guide and programming is listed normally, but all any of us see when we tune to the channel is a screen displaying the message quoted above. I had hoped you, or someone, might have some information as to when the channel plans to resume broadcasting its content normally. Channel 18 Estrella TV-KFFS programming is currently unavailable For the past month, whenever I tune to channel 18 (Estrella TV) the channel seems to be off the air. All I get is a screen stating that "programming is currently unavailable from the broadcaster. We are working to restore the service as soon as possible." Any word when programming will be restored? (using Cox cable out of Fort Smith, Arkansas) Thanks Re: Blocking two sites, via time out, all other sites work. @DBell, I have the same problem, which started this past week. I own one website, apcsteacher.com, and manage another for a private company both of which are hosted by powweb.com, which is one of many hosting businesses owned by Endurance International Group. I noticed that not only were my sites blocked, but all sites owned by powweb (not sure about other sites owned by EIG). Your sites, www.ddbellenterprises.com and www.brothersreconciliation.org, are also blocked. By "blocked" I mean that if I try to view the site using any device or any browser connected to my home wifi (service provided by Cox), all I get is "Connection has timed out" or similar message depending on the browser. Btw, thankfully e-mail and FTP services to my sites still work normally. It's just the webservers that won't serve to my IP address. The blocking seems to be based on my IP address. But I don't know yet whether it is being done by Powweb or by Cox. Checking with other known Cox customers, my sites are not blocked for them and they are able to view the sites normally. However, if I use my phone (with Verizon service) as a mobile hot spot I can view any of these sites--on my phone, my laptop, and my desktop pc using any browser. I carried my laptop to a friend's house who uses a satellite internet service and, using both my laptop and my phone, all these sites came up just fine there too. More about IP addresses. IP #1: After years of connecting easily to my sites I noticed on Monday (August 17, 2020) that my site apcsteacher.com seemed to be down (with a "connection has timed out" error). So I logged in to powweb.com (which was still accessible via my browser) and used their chat support to report the problem. They said my site was not down and that I should contact Cox. That's when I called my cousin across town who also has Cox service and he said he sould see the sites just fine. So I knew Cox wasn't blocking those sites for all its customers. Upon googling to find other sites hosted by Powweb I found that all those sites were also "down", but not really down, just not serving my IP address. For the next few days I used google to research the problem and found that several others had the same experience with plenty of guesswork as to the cause and with no solutions other than possible IP blocking. IP #2: So on Friday August 21, 2020, I cloned by router's Mac address to my laptop and restarted by cable modem and router after which Cox's DHCP service issued me a new IP address. Instantly my website came right up! And so did all the other Powweb-hosted sites I had been testing. I was delighted. But my delight was short-lived. 24 hours later, the blocking returned. IP #3: So on Saturday August 22, 2020, I removed the cloned Mac address and restarted by cable modem and router after which Cox's DHCP serviced issued me a THIRD IP address. Instantly my website and all other Powweb-hosted sites came right up. With cautious optimism, I hoped it would last. But 30 hours later on Sunday, August 23, 2020, the blocking return. When trying to view my site, or any other Powweb-hosted site, all I got was "Connection has timed out". This reply on Cox's Internet forum is my first attempt to contact Cox before I also make a second, more informed attempt to contact Powweb, but hurricane Laura is in the Gulf of Mexico and although I live inland and far enough north I don't want to be caught in the middle of a power outage, so I'll wait until after the storm to contact Powweb. If any Cox moderator is reading this, please do your best to figure out if this is in any way related to settings or changes on Cox's side. Perhaps something like a misplaced parental protection? And changes lately that would have caused a "fix this--break that" error? DBell, could you verify if your hosting service is Powweb or any hosting service owned by Endurance International Group? You can find a list of EIP's subsidiaries on wikipedia. If no solution is found soon, we both might find that the only remedy is to look for another hosting provider. Sincerely, CFMonroe Re: Series Recording Not Available As of this morning some time (Aug 13 2020), the problem seems to have been resolved. "Record series" options have returned and previously programmed series in the "Series Manager" are now recording properly or showing up in the "Schedule Recordings" list. Fingers crossed. Re: Series Recording Not Available I have the same issue and thought there was a problem with my Contour 1 DVR. I almost missed America's Got Talent last night! Random programs seem to be effected and when they do any previous "record series" setting fails and instead I get a "missed recording...not found in the guide" error even though the series has been recording properly for months or even years. So glad to learn my DVR is fine and that it is being looked in to nationally. Very annoying, but hopefully it can be resolved soon. Re: Channel 18 Estrella TV shows Court TV listings Hey Brian and Kevin! As of yesterday Channels 15 and 18 started displaying their guide listings correctly. Thanks for your help! Re: Channel 18 Estrella TV shows Court TV listings Hey Brian! Have you heard any explanation as to what the problem is? Is it easily fixed? Or is it beyond the control of Cox? Re: Channel 18 Estrella TV shows Court TV listings As of Tuesday (2/25) the problem seems to be WORSE! Now channel 18's program listing remains Court TV while it's broadcasting is still Estrella TV. AND CHANNEL 15's programming listing incorrectly displays programs for Estrella TV however it's broadcasting is Univision Arkansas (LXUN-LD). CRAZY!!! My DVR, which as set to record certain programs on Estrella TV prior to this problem, is how recording Univision! CRAZY!!! Please inform your video team. Thank you! Channel 18 Estrella TV shows Court TV listings Here in Ft Smith AR prior to January 14 2020 Channel 18 carried Estrella TV and the Contour program guide listed Estrella TV programming. Then suddenly the next day the program guide started listing programs for the Court TV channel but Estrella TV programs are still broadcast, and this discrepancy has persisted as of the date of this post. Setting my DVR to record Estrella TV programming is no longer possible. I checked with a number of Cox customers around the area and they see the same discrepancy on their Contour cable boxes. I called Cox tv support and they wanted to replace my cable box! Last week I went to the Cox Solutions store on Rogers Avenue and the tv displays in their show room have the same discrepancy! Nobody in the room could explain it. One employee said he would file a work order and let me know what he found out but I have heard nothing back. Does anybody know what this problem is and when will it be resolved? I hope they keep Estrella TV!
