Cox Cable - is it just me?
 

I have been having massive problems with my Cox Cable connection, lately. Anyone else using Cox Cable in the Las Vegas area having problems?

Cox sucks lately, but I'm not in Vegas


They turned me off twice saying my computer was infected and sending out trojans to other hosts ... and I wasn't even using the service during that time :ak47:

Mine goes out for a couple minutes every few days.. nothing major.

Did you try 383-4000 and check for system outages :)
I got that number memorized when they always used to fuck up before :glugglug

I'm not familiar with that number. I haven't had any communication with Cox since they installed the cable when I moved in. It's 9:15PM now and my internet connection just started working. It's been like that for several days.

SpaceAce

That's their idea of customer service? Sheesh.

SpaceAce

That's the main number for Cox in Vegas.
You shouldn't be holding too long for tech support this time of night. There is a Russian dude there that really knows his stuff. If you get him you will be sorted out in a couple minutes.

How long has yours been playing up and what part of Vegas are you? I'm in Summerlin and everything is smooth here tonight so far.

I'm in Phoenix and I just had a half hour outage - first time in about two years.

I'm in Oklahoma and my connection has been disconnecting/reconnecting on its on every night. Last night I was down for 10 minutes. I also have a friend who is an hour away and he has been having the same problems.

At least now I know its nationwide.

I'm in Henderson and it's been like this for several days.

SpaceAce

LOL... I am going to give this one a minute to sink in.

SpaceAce

our connection was slow as balls till we rebooted the cable modem... it's better now

i'm in phoenix also and have had ZERO problems.

No problems with cox in Kansas but I do wish they lower the price a bit. $49.95 a month is killing me. I might have to switch back to dial up next month if I don't make any sales this month.

I'm in Henderson as well
I went down last night, but it ws my cable modem itself that took a shit..I tore the poor fucker's head off when I called Cox because he kept telling me there was no problem when there was...but they sent a guy out with a new modem today and it's working fine for me ever since...

maybe one of your neighbor's kids is raping kazaa and choking the bandwidth....

hey spaceace, is you fast connection running now???


I want to test something..

I had my connection go out for awhile two nights in a row

but nothing too bad

One of you guys with cox cable, ping this domain for me and tell me what the response time is..

Thanks!

:1orglaugh two of life's problem's You can't choose who's in your family or in your particular cable node :glugglug

My connection seems fine, now. I am getting 68ms pinging that domain for you.

SpaceAce

yup I get 70ms here

Got 68ms the first time, and then

56 the second..

But I am running on a radio signal..

definitely

lately i've been having trouble with them too

If any of you are in Socal area and need a goo fast connection, e-mail me at sales at housewivescash dot com

I will hook you up with the company I am using..

this is somewhat unrelated, but I am on charter (charter/cox = same company) and the place i used to live had problems once or twice a week. I mean literally, they would send a tech out on day, he would fix it, and a day or 2 later it was fucked again.

There were several instances where my information(address, acct etc) got deleted out of there systems and shit...

The place im at now, never had a single problem. i am the first house after the node or whatever its called, and noone in my subdivision uses the cable service, so my shit is blazing fast!!! about 1MB down, over what they offer :thumbsup

When I lived in the states, Cox always sucked. (Cox sux cox?) And their rates were awful.

actually, I'm way out in Henderson, out near Lake Las Vegas/Lake Mead and there aren't a lot of people on my node, so I seldomly have problems...until the modem took a shit....

I am in Green Valley (GVP & 215) and my connection has been fine for the past few days, I was getting spotty outages for a couple days at the end of last week though.

I know people who host on their cable onnection
