<h3 dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify" id="tag-14"><strong>Improper use of the wifi</strong></h3>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Cox does not restrict Internet usage. It does not mean that you should connect more devices than necessary. If multiple devices are connected or multiple tasks are performed simultaneously, bandwidth is distributed to those devices. As a result, a certain amount of bandwidth is allocated to various resources, wifi speed will be lower than expected.</p>

<h3 dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify" id="tag-21"><strong>Someone is using your wifi</strong></h3>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">If your wireless connection is unsecured, maybe your neighbors are using your Internet without your knowledge.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">It's common, but many households don't think it can cause slow WiFi speeds. Other users may be using multiple devices simultaneously and you never know that. The fact that too many people use the network stealthily is also the cause of Spectrum slow wifi. </p>

<h2 dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify" id="tag-42"><strong>How to overcome the slow Cox wifi? </strong></h2>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">If you are experiencing wifi slow even at Cox or Spectrum, let’s try out these tips below. Your connection will be improved significantly. </p>

<ul>
<li dir="ltr">
	<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Unplug your router and modem from the power source for thirty seconds. Plugin your modem first, then plug in your router. Reboot both devices by unplugging them again, wait 10 seconds, then plug them back in.</p>
	</li>
	<li dir="ltr">
	<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Update your router's firmware to make it faster and more efficient.</p>
	</li>
	<li dir="ltr">
	<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Make sure nothing is blocking any cables in your home. This can interfere with the wireless signal and slow down the speed significantly; also check that all cables are properly connected at both ends (including the power cord).</p>
	</li>
	<li dir="ltr">
	<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Reset your network settings by holding the “Reset” button on the back of the modem for 30 seconds until it reboots on its own. Then wait 10 minutes before restarting any other devices like computers and routers so they can automatically reconnect once the reboot is complete.</p>
	</li>
