I have the cable going right into the wireless router. I do a speed check and I am getting about 5mbps.

What device are you running the speed test on? The roku?

Try a speedtest via hard wire if possible.

Are you saying you're only getting 5 with a wired connection?

Yes

Roku 3's have an ethernet port

using the ATT website's speed test

Oh, so you're only paying for 5mbps? Why did you switch to Cox for the speed, then? Uverse can easily do faster than that.

well, I thought that cox was a faster line to begin with. I was paying for 12mbps with ATT and getting about 2. Now i am paying for 5mbps (plus 1 with the power boost) and getting about 3.5. so I am paying less and getting more via Cox.

I guess I need to bump up to the next level of Cox
