I believe Cox should have the filters applied today, the modem's on the way, I have my wireless USB adapter here, and I'll grab the wireless router either Friday or Saturday....

If I could make a suggestion, the USB setup is much slower and more of a pain in the ass, imo, than using a Nic Card with Cox. I mean Cox is a pain in the ass for most to begin with. Second, USB uses your CPU resources, a Nic Card does not.
As to wireless, it's like guitars, some people like them some don't. I don't use wireless for several reasons, but if you have the new Cox up/download speeds, wireless won’t hurt your speeds too bad.
Tried several different modums with Cox HSI, and the Motorola SurfBoard SB5100 clearly worked the best and was the most stable. Of course, I’m running that with a router and hard firewall, along with a soft firewall and multi-tier web filtering setup, to keep the nasties “on the other side of the fence”
There is about a half dozen tweaks you can do to “dial-in” your Cox connection and increase its stability and performance. If you would like any help, just let me know.
Not trying to butt in, just sharing….Peace
