is it possible to change the wifi channel on my panoramic wifi to one that is less crowded?
Hello, I'm reaching out to ask how I can change the wifi channel used by my panoramic gateway/router. I have been having a lot of internet stuttering and lag recently. I thought the problem might resolve itself after the scheduled outage for system work on 3/15/2022. it didn't, so i changed my plan to a higher tier thinking there were more neighbors paying more, and i was getting slower speeds to keep bandwidth available. that didn't change anything either. After doing more homework I was led to look at the channel my hardware uses for wifi. This seems like a likely cause for the problem. I am on a channel with 15 other users that show a strong connection. there are 5ghz that are unused and available. i found that i can get to an older java interface through a browser by pointing it to the gateway, but that app says channels are automaticallycontrolled. any advice would be appreciated. regards, chris
Ultimate 500 modems
Just confused at why modems rated higher than 500mbps are stuck at the Ultimate Classic tier, which to my understanding is 300mbps and not even offered anymore (grandfathered plan) - If the modem is rated for 680mbps, what's the technical limitation as to why it can't support 500mbps? - The current tiers go from 150 mbps service to 500 mbps service. If you don't even offer Ultimate Classic service anymore, why is it listed on the Cox compatiblemodem pagehttps://www.cox.com/residential/support/cox-certified-cable-modems.html
Router has no connection after a power outage?
Hello, just yesterday morning/afternoon a storm knocked my power out momentarily, but the router hasn’t seemed to recover yet. I was wondering if I could get the status of my router checked and possibly remotely reset? Manually resetting it at home hasn’t seemed to work, and I know when someone did it remotely when I asked on here, it worked just fine afterwards. I hope my router is alright.
Arris SB8200 Docsis 3.1 GigaBlast No Blue Lights Up or Down
Called Cox for new internet options. Told me I was grandfathered in at 150. Quoted me 300 and Giga. Call ended. I had a Netgear 3.0 modem / router combo that worked fine. I buy a 3.0 modem and a mesh router to increase my WIFI area. I try to get it calibrated only to find out I have a work order for GigaBlast speeds and my 3.0 equipment is unusable. So as a patient person I go and swap my 3.0 for a 3.1 modem costing me more money. I call to get the 3.1 calibrated by Cox and it shows all green lights 3.0, no blue lights for Arris SB8200 Docsis 3.1 GigaBlast No Blue Lights Up or Down. Speeds are 250 down and 20 up and that is before and after a modem factory reset with ONLY my laptop plugged in. Tried with a desktop as well with the same result. - Called and asked was GiagBlast and Docsis 3.1 avilable in my area and told it was - Forced to GigaBlast without request and told I can't return to my original speed - Asked me to upgrade my equipment to take advantage of GigaBlast but when equipment is installed it I only get 3.0 and low speeds - Called from 10am to Midnight and text chat too. After dealing with 6 different people and a whole day wasted I still got nowhere - Best of all I was told no work could be done while there was an "outage" in my area. One that lasted from 2pm to 7pm, and then another that started at 12am forecast to end at 6am. Anybody else have these issues and if so how were they resolved??? - Do yourself a favor and DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT engage in the text chat option from your phone. A waste of time and resources!!!!
