Hey guys. Cox has once again gone up on my rates. Right now I have Cox TV Essentials ($70/month) and Preferred Internet ($63/month). I called and told them I was thinking of switching so they knocked off $15/month which brings me back down to what I was paying before.
While on the phone, I asked the rep the price of Cox TV Starter. She said it was $25/month. I asked if it included the local clear QAM channels like I'm getting now. She said it did not. A friend of mine told me a while back that he had Starter but was getting the same channels as Essentials (without a box) and that Cox couldn't put the filter on the line that prevented channels 23+ as it would also block the QAM that the cable modem needs to operate. I thought he might have been just lucky that they forgot to put the filter in place, but now I am wondering if this is truly the case.
Can Cox filter my channels to just SD Ch2-23 and still have my cable modem work?
