I've been using their Business service for about 3 years, 0 complaints. A
few minor short outages, but they are always quick to resolve. My plans are
to continue as their customer. My modem is older, but since I have their 2
Meg line I don't care what version it is..yet.

Subject: OT: Moving from Cox Consumer to Cox Business Internet and Phone
Hi,
I'm thinking of moving from consumer cable to business cable with Cox.
Currently I have an Internet connection that is shared with up to 349 others
with a max of up to 20mb/sec down. Not sure what up is, might be 2mb/sec. I
have a consumer phone line and distinct ringing for my fax. It comes with a
dynamic IP. Lease might be almost forever though.
I can move to the basic business plan with a static IP, free long distance
vs. 5 cents a minute, and a number of other features that I would have to
pay extra for on the consumer line.
Cox says the "modem" is a docsis 3.0 and is free. Installation is free
also. A tech will have to come to my house to switch me from consumer to
business.
Cox also says they will give me a credit on my first bill of $201.00, that
is the equivalent of 2 months of Internet and phone for free. All I have to
pay is the taxes, which they say will be the same as on my consumer plan.
The Internet connection is not shared with anyone else, and I would be
getting 12m down and 2 up. The TOS allows me to run a server or servers...
to include a mail server.
This move will require a 36 month contract.
I was wondering if anyone is using the business Internet with Cox and if you
have had any problems and if you are running a server without any real
issues.
Any other insight is much welcome!
Thanks!
