Re: Cox contour 2 client box not working
I was thinking along those lines but suddenly realized I hadn’t replaced the power supply when I brought home the new host box. Just connected it to the old one and it worked fine but the client boxstill did not work. Replaced power supply yesterday and now all is well. Duh! 😊 Thanks for your help!12Views0likes5CommentsRe: Cox contour 2 client box not working
Yes, it is a regular cable box and not wireless. Tried resetting through Cox with and without the client connected. I get an error message that says reset cannot be completed. Host box still works but client doesn’t work no matter what I do.18Views0likes8CommentsRe: Cox contour 2 client box not working
Thank you for the responses but I have tried all that. Even tried moving the client to a different TV. Rebooted host, connected client, same problem. I tried resetting the modem through cox with just the host connected. I got a message that reset could not be completed, try again later. Same message I have gotten every time. Not sure about an outdated code or token. The first client box had worked fine until I disconnected the host to change the media cabinet. Actually, now that I think about it, I got the same error message (tighten connections) once or twice in the past, but just rebooted the client and all was fine. Maybe that was the beginning of this whole issue but I can't think what the heck is causing it. I thought exchanging both boxes for new would have corrected the problem, but no dice.12Views0likes10CommentsRe: Cox contour 2 client box not working
Thank you for your reply. Maybe I was not clear. The host box is plugged in and working. I have now exchanged the host box also and the new one is plugged in and working fine, but still cannot get the client box to work. I have replaced all the cables and also ran cable to another cable wall outlet but still no luck.17Views0likes15Comments- 167Views0likes17Comments

Cox contour 2 client box not working
I had to unplug my large contour box to put in a new media cabinet. When I restarted it, my smaller "client box" in another room, stopped working. It kept telling me to tighten the connections and I've done that but I get an error message every time I reboot it. I've traded the box in for a new one and am having the same problem. I switched out the HDMI cable and the HDMI port on my television. I've done all the simple fixes but nothing is working. Can the large contour box be keeping the client box from working?9.1KViews0likes29Comments
