Cox ISP were good internet provider in Wichita, ks and I hope that DOCSIS 3 is coming soon in my the area.
*UPDATE Oct. 19, 2009 21:39*
I placed the implemented to put a filter on TCP reset for inbound traffic direction only and I don't find any single encountered problem of iptables firewall and my experience were great, smoothly and speedy and my P2P applications wouldn't be interrupted by rogue hacker or either internet service provider forged TCP reset packets where it is filtered at inbound traffic direction only and speeds of internet were great at times, DNS caching forwarded server were implemented too that were boosted my productivity of an internet and my pleasure of an internet of gaming. I don't care if Cox internet service provider wants to keep sending any forged TCP reset packets to a consumers also includes me but that will not affected my productivity of an internet due that forged TCP reset were filtered at inbound of my iptables firewall system however I understands that Cox internet service provider have right to send out any forged TCP reset packets on their OWN network equipments as Cox's networks so that isn't mine. 
Anyone who running Linux OS so that can take of advantage of iptables firewall to put filter on TCP reset packets as disruptive packets of downstream of receives from ISP who maintains ISP's network equipment by sending the TCP reset to cut any virtual circuit connection down of TCP network inside of ISP networks and Linux users receives TCP reset is filtered at the point of iptables firewall be dropped and that puts Linux users be on full of a free fast lane all times, for windows users are utterly completely SOL that don't have tools to filter TCP reset packets out of their way.
Bittorrent download speeds were great speeds in the short time that is great to share the files over an internet with combination of iptables is blocked the TCP RST and use bittorrent encryption, I use UDP for both tracking and DHT, my kbittorrent were running over 2.5 MB/sec to 3.0 MB/sec of download rates that is really great!

| Re: Bad information, reviewless-review. This is a bad review I have read. How is the service? What kind of computer is the person using? How very good, stable, and reliable the service is in the area? How good is the ping times? What kind of cable modem is he using? What does he thinks of tech support? New users and neighbors are going to wonder how good and fast Cox is. Also, how good tech support is. They aren't going to care about the RWIN the person is using and the speeds which they are using with that RWIN. Especially new PC and Internet users don't know what a RWIN is. All he talks about is he uses some ridiculous RWIN and his speeds are 20Mb. I mean no one really cares. They want information about the service in his area. And RWIN, MTU, and MSS is something that goes right over their heads.
Thank you.
