Cox internet slow for anyone else last couple of days?

I haven't had any problems with them up until the last 2-3 days where it's been noticeably slower. Is this happening for anyone else?

Yes and it's driving me fricking crazy. I'm in Algiers.

Yes.... And Cox internet service just went down about 30 minutes ago.

Yes. River Ridge has been a mess. Intermittent mess. Speed tests show everything moving along fine but all devices have been intermittently slow including the computer directly hooked up to the net so it isn't a router issue.
Some clicks just seem to hang up. I get normal speed if the click works. Otherwise it just hangs. Pages with lots of stuff going on, hang up. It started Friday night. I did 4 different virus / malware checks on my computer. I turned everything off. I reset the modem with cox. Nothing seemed to work.
Haven't been on much this morning so not sure if it is still crap. Hmmm. Did a few google searches which were slow yesterday and it might be faster today. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Definitely is working better at the moment. Amazon was a pain in the arse to use yesterday and now it appears to be loading faster.

Same problem and I got fed up enough to call. Found out that maintenance has been going on since June 1st and that it seems like it had started to affect service.
The work is scheduled to be completed by 6 AM on June 22. Might get better before then (but no guarantee) but SHOULD be better after that; and to call if it's still bad after that time.

At least it seems a bit better. I could barely do anything 3 days ago. Now it's still a up and down process but a bit more actually loading pages.

It's 100% better today. I've done lots of amazon shopping and spent a pile of time killing on youtube with zero problems.

Yeah, it's gotten much better today. Still slower than normal and some pages hang while loading but it looks like it's making progress.
10-13 Mbps is a quantum leap over the 0.2-0.5 Mbps I was seeing.

Glad I'm not the only one. Same as everyone else, it's been really bad the last few days, but much better today. Still have had a few hangups.

Seems like it was slower again last night after being fine on Sunday but I could just be paranoid.

Mine is completely out right now.
