To Live Chat Agent- May S.
PLEASE READ THIS POST!!! My internet has been outage since 26hrs ago and I talked to four live chat agents online so far. One of the agent called May S made my day. LET'S START WITH HER:) I asked her what's going on with my internet because it has been out of service for a while. She said, "Due to Hurricane Delta impacts, the Louisiana markets are experiencing a delay in Estimated Time of Resolutions, that's why I cannot assure you the correct time." Gosh, kidding me? I'm currently living in South California. Hurricane? From where? From Cox? Or from yourself, May S? Don't you think you'reRIDICULOUS?I paid the most expensive internet fee every month but what about the quality? Also, another live chat agent said the service signals are being delivered correctly so it seems the issue is related to my modem. WTF? I asked her give me the local Cox telephone number then I asked the phone agent about the reason of internet outage. Apparently, the phone agent knows nothing! He said it's Cox signal problem instead of mine. I double checked with the phone agent whether Hurricane Delta impact the internet connection or not, and he told me that's impossible. First, no one has found out the main reason of the outage yet. Second, Louisiana is 1500 miles away from California, so it can't be impact even Louisiana is experiencing hurricane right now. Sincerely, I want to ask May S, is this the way you lie to your customer? If so, be PROFESSIONAL. Highly recommend to use Google map and check the distance between two states.Solved1.1KViews1like4Comments

Copyleft @2000-2002 Vasile Laurentiu Stanimir ( stanimir@cr.nivis.com ) Here is a sample of a 20 minute test to a blizzard server while playing overwatch. 95% packet loss to the specific IP. Multiple calls to cox with no resolution. Not even an offer to change my route. I was told that the department in charge of fixing my issue is unreachable by me as a paying customer and as well as the employees of cox not being able to contact this so called department about my problem. Super frustrating that the phone representatives take us paying and knowledgeable customers as idiots and claim that there is nothing they can do to resolve an issue multiple people are having. This is a last chance effort on my part to see if someone is smart enough to help me with this issue as I have been a loyal customer for several years.5.3KViews0likes15Comments

Response from Cox Moderator is *** **! The fact is, Cox or any other communication provider will not allow on-line down-grades! You're screwed man! The providers want to make it *** near impossible to downgrade services. They will gladly "upgrade" (= more $) your "service", even if it already screws you! I know Cox wont post this, but at least I can vent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been having problems across all Blizzard games. I get major rubberbanding and packet loss. My ps4 version of Overwatch runs just fine. It has something to do with a hop somewhere in Dallas. I've tried contacting Blizzard about it and they tried to fixed it, but they said I'll have to contact Cox. Please help me fix this, as Cox has been nothing but terrible the entire time I've been with them.

Upload Speeds drop in the Evening.
Been having some issues as of late. in the evening the upload speeds drop considerably. to the point where my sons can not game online on their ps4. bought a new modem and new router thinking it would solve the issue. then we upgraded to the ultimate package at 300/30. sometime around 7pm every night the upload speeds drop and come back around 10pm or so. all other times speeds seem to be fine. what could it be? have had a tech out and he changed all ends on the cables and signal tests were good at that point. issue still hasn't been resolved. requency start Value This field below allows you to modify the frequency the cable modem start with its scan during initialization and registration.

Accessing Cox Communications in hotels in Europe
I am on a cruise in Europe. The hotel connection in Lisbon would let me google or whatever I needed except Cox Communications. It would just spin. I am now on a cruise ship and having no difficulty connecting and checking webmail. I will be in a London hotel soon where I had the same experience last year. I will also be in Paris. Can anyone explain why I can't reach Cox Communications in a hotel? My browser is Firefox but I have also tried Internet Explorer and have the same results. I am using a Toshiba netbook. Thanks for any help you can provide!2.8KViews0likes3Comments
