Re: Internet
FYI, if you work from home, you shouldn't be on WiFi, you should be on ethernet. It's the fastest, most reliable communications method. That being said, what modem/router are you using? If using a pano modem, I refer you to - Cox's New PW7, 4331 vs Arris DG2460 | Cox Community81Views0likes1CommentRe: Wifi
So, since WMO's post wasn't direct enough for you here goes - Except Cox management won't be reading these forums. Read what the forums are for. It's for Cox Customers to help one another with technical issues. If you want to kvetch to Cox management, you are in the wrong place. "The purpose of the CoxInternet Forum is to allow customers to discuss technical topics related to residential CoxHigh Speed Internet services with other customers. If you need help with billing or other account specific issues, please reach us on Twitter at@CoxHelp, visit us onFacebook, or atcox.help@cox.com."64Views1like2CommentsRe: Something is up with Cox's notifications
Cox's data monitoring system is checked and verified by a third party, and is 99.9% accurate. I have run tests using my RAXE300 router, and found all data monitoring to be spot on as well. MOST routers are capable of monitoring data usage, if you have your own router, see if it can monitor your data usage. That being said, there are many things that can use data, security cameras, streaming media, gaming, apps on phones, as well as an issue with amazon echo and their programs. They can go into a loop of sending everything it hears to amazon and trying to figure out if you are talking to it or not. Had someone a few years ago, turn off their amazon devices, and dropped over 700gb of data usage a month. ALSO, Amazon devices can SHARE your connection with neighbors amazon devices. They call it low level data sharing, but unless you can actually measure it, who knows.79Views0likes0Comments
