    Optimum Cox Cable Internet Setup

    Hey all, just looking for advice on an optimum setup for my Cox Cable internet setup.

    We have the 50mbps internet plan running through an Arris WiFi Modem.

    Our current setup tends to randomly drop speeds or have intermittent connections even though the router is centralized.

    Everything is connected via WiFi; Xbox, ps4, and apple products.

    So any good advice would be appreciated. Buy a modem and router? Buy a modem/router combo? Etc.

    Thanks!

    A big part of the problem most likely. I'm not smart with networking, but for myself I'm running a Motorola Surfboard 6121 with an ASUS AC1750 plus a 24 port switch and have zero issues. All desktop computers and consoles are wired. I rarely dip below 85mbps down and that's with stupid comcast.

    I'd imagine Cox has a list of approved modems. Start there.
