Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.did you test it by connecting it directly to the cox modem?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have the same issue with my provider for my wired computer. The speed advertised isn't available in my area, even though I'm paying for it. They told me the only way to get better speeds in my area was with satellite. I'm using a hotspot for a laptop with much, much higher speeds. I bought the Netgear N300 USB adapter to try it with my wired computer. Some success, but nowhere near the speeds I get with my laptop. I'm assuming processor speeds are a big part of it.

There is also less interference with a Cat5e or Cat6 cable. This will increase your speed as long as your ISP is in fact providing you with the 120MBs they are claiming.

Although there are settings in your router that can boggle down your network speeds as well as the cables qualities themselves. There's a setting in your router for WAN leading to the router from the modem called MTU max transfer units which if set to low or to high can change the packet sizes and lower or higher your transmission speeds. Also using an AC router with Gigabit Ethernet ports would help as a Fast Ethernet might cause some bandwidth bottlenecks. As well as cabling rated for Gigabit Ethernet, I.E. Cat. 5E and above.
I would recommend:
