Does COX Homelife rely on the obsolete G3 network for cellular backup?
All major cellular carriers are discontinuing G3. While the main connection of my Homelife center is through COX cable, it has a cellular backup in case the cable connection is down. However, I am worried that it may be using G3 and hence become obsolete. Does anyone know whether this is the case? A lot of Homelife customers may be in for a rude awakening if someone tried to break in and no alarm goes out during a cable outage. Thanks!
COX Home Life & Adding Cameras
I have the Full COX setup, internet, cable, and the home life security setup. I have two 'ICamera2" on the system, I purchased another one to add to the system. My understanding is that I can add up to 6 cameras. However, when I called Cox to help add the new camera I was told, that although I have service I am not allowed to add my own camera and I have to have a technician come out, charge me $75 to add a new camera. Reason, my service level doesn't allow for adding this myself. I spoke to a supervisor, and he told me the same thing. "Sorry, you have homelife, and it doesn't allow you to add your own camera, we have to send a tech out at a $75 cost to you to add the camera that you purchased from us into our system" Can someone explain this to me! I am one click away from canceling everything from cox, and I mean EVERYTHING! because this is simply WRONG!

Many have commented on the fact that the Vlock is no longer available nor is the weather. I see Cox continues to use a standard reply of...while the industry grows... Tell me Cox, are you saving money by removing the clock app? Currently my homelife touch screen states there are no apps to be loaded. So basically the touchscreen mirrors my phone app. Why do I need to be paying for the touchscreen?
