Can I ask why you're buying two? Do you have two separate circuits through Cox? Be careful with the DPQ3212 - those get blacklisted easily. Even if buying from a 3rd party that uses a mac address/serial # range outside of Cox's internal supply, sometimes the provisioning system will flag them just by the model number - which unlike other MAC/Serial combos *are always* recognized as DPQ3212s and can't be spoofed. So if possible I'd shy away from them. There are plenty of places that offer refurbed 3.0 8x4 or even 16x4 modems for cheap if no one has one in PLUG. Depending on speeds you can use any of the SB618[0-3] model range pretty reliably, but there's plenty of opinion out there. -Thomas On Thu, Aug 8, 2019 at 3:32 AM David Schwartz wrote: > I’ve got a couple that work fine on the Cox 100 meg plan. > > I upgraded recently to their 300 meg plan.
