Gigablast in Scottsdale
Recently I received an email that gigablast (Docsis 3.1 version) is available in my area. I called and scheduled an appointment for install. I made sure to tell them that today I have ultimate plan with 2 extenders (6,500 square foot house) and that I will need 2 or even 3 extenders with gigablast. I was not told that there would be any problems with this. I called again midweek to verify that extenders will be brought to the install. On the day of the install this past Saturday I was called by the technician and told that extenders for docsis 3.1 were not available and that due to this install couldn’t proceed with guarantees for full house coverage. My questions for Cox: 1. Do you educate your workforce on what is or isn’t available? 2. Why do you claim whole house coverage when this is a lie? 3. What is panoramic if not just an attempt to mislead users into believing that you have service that you actually don’t?1.9KViews1like2CommentsPanoramic Modem Admin Username and Password
I recently upgraded to the Panoramic modem/wifi device (model CGM4141). Unfortunately the Cox wifi extender (model WCB6200Q) that used to work with the prior Cox modem/wifi device (model TG2472G) doesn't work with the Panoramic modem (per Cox). So I bought a NetGear EX8000 wifi extender to provide service to a couple of dead spots in my house. To properly set the switches and the interface between the devices does anyone know the admin username and password for the Panoramic modem? P.S. I'm not asking for the SSID and password that's on the modem. I am specifically asking for the administrator's username and password.Solved36KViews0likes2CommentsPanoramic WiFi - extender issues
Hello, I currently have Panoramic WiFi with one extender, and I am having the following issues: 1. Extender paired SSIDs: After pairing the extender with the main router via WPS, only one new SSID or network is showing up. Shouldn't there be two? One for 2.4ghz and one for 5.0ghz networks? Main Router SSIDs (default names): 1) 2.4ghz =A6C5FF; 2) 5.0ghz =A6C600 Extender SSIDs (WPS paired name): A6C5FF-5G 2. Cox My WiFi: editing 'Device Name' for any particular device in the 'Device List' does not work. I will go in and edit all of my Device Names, but after a day or so it does the following: 1) some devices revert back to default names, 2) some devices switch edited names (for example, my edited 'Sprinkler' device name is now 'AV-Receiver') 3. Main Router web interface for configuration is extremely SLOW. When I use the internal IP address and default user/password to login to the router interface via the web, anytime I click on a button it then says something like "Your unit is updating..." and then it takes a while to load the new page. I can live with that, but some features such as the 'Client List' button for both 2.4ghz and 5.0ghz networks does not work. When I click on 'Client List' for either network, it hangs on "Your unit is updating..." Any help or insight into the issues above is much appreciated. I have done reboots and complete resets of both devices, but no solution. Also, I have spoken with a Panoramic technician over the phone, and he seemed to understand all of the issues above, which felt promising; however, I have had two service technicians (Cox sub-contractors) visit my home, and they are uneducated on Panoramic, the associated equipment, and my particular issues.

Anyone know of a remote extender (and where I can get it) that works with the Contour Main Unit's IR port? We just got Contour and I have a long-used Smarthome cabinet IR extender system for all the components in our cabinet, but the Contour unit even with an IR Blaster stuck on the front panel where I believe the IR receiver is - has absolutely horrible response - so bad that it isn't really usable. Also is there a manual for that unit online? I did not get one from the tech. Or if someone could confirm where the IR sensor is in case that would be great (looks like there are 2 "eyes" in the smoky panel to the right of the display? I've tried both and can get a response from the box while behind the cabinet but as above - highly inconsistent). Than you in advance..40KViews0likes1Comment
