Cox Comm. Internet

Anyone noticed a huge slowdown with Cox Internet service. In the last 2 weeks, it seems that just loading up MSC.com is taking forever. Dont know what the problem is. Nothing new on my end. Havent called Cox yet, just wondering if anyone else is experiancing the same problem.

Ouch, maybe a call to cox would be in order. There may be some small cable problems in your neighborhood. Maybe some Line Extenders need tuned or there might be cable signal leakage on lines in your area.

I always have noticed it and always thought it was my computer. Since I have switched to SBC yahoo, my computer is going goooood!!!!!! I am so glad I switched, and at this time I am almost saving $30.00 a month.
