A few months ago i moved in with my roommate who has Cox. I've had U-verse for the past three years and it wasn't available in my new neighborhood. I never had an issue with speed fall outs, now i'm having a ton of connection problems here. He has that black motorola Docsis 3.0 modem. Both lights are blue. (i really don't know much about cable, i can practically tell you anything you want to know about VDSL.) We are using my Apple Airport Extreme Base station (the new one with AC and beam forming) I'm noticing after visiting several sites they run great and then i lose my connection. I have to restart my browser or device, then reconnect and it "might" come back. I end up having to reboot my modem and router and switch in that order then i can connect again.
if it helps we are near airline and clearview around the highland st area.
I've never seen this before.
We have nearly everything in the house except for smartphones, tablets and my macbook setup via cat5e. Right now i have two devices plugged into my airport and the rest on a 5 port switch. to make things a bit easier i ordered a 16 port switch from dell and will move those to that when it comes in. I've checked the airport at a friends house and it isn't the issue. There are no fall outs there.
Am i missing something? My roommate is leaving town for the weekend so i wanted to see what i needed to do before he leaves and i can't get anything done until he gets back.
