No need to make a second post because the one you posted 15 minutes ago didn't get a reply.

 

Check out http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Description=DOCSIS%203.0%20modem&Submit=ENE

 

And see if you find any modems that will work with Cox.

 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16825390001 seems to be the most popular one.

http://ww2.cox.com/residential/support/internet/article.cox?articleId=%7Bcc6c9cc0-fdba-11e1-7a24-000000000000%7D and this shows it's Cox approved

 

Gotta say it took about 30 seconds to find it on Google....In the 15 minutes it took you waiting, you could have figured it out too.

Yep. Same one I posted above :)

It's actually cheaper on Amazon so that is a good deal.
