Cox Approved Modems

The top recommended modems for the many Cox approved modems appear in the sections below. You will find the best approved modems for Cox internet services based on value, DOCSIS 3.1, and WiFi.

Read the Cable Modem Buying Guide to help you choose a modem. Do not forget to purchase your modem accessories.

Internet providers have begun removing some DOCSIS 3.0 modems from their networks. To maximize the years of use from a modem, it is strongly recommended to purchase a DOCSIS 3.1 device (the latest standard).
