Troubleshooting Router Problems With a Cox Security System

Do not unplug the cable connecting the Touchscreen to the Cox Homelife router. Doing so causes your system to function incorrectly.

See the table below for solutions to common problems with the router.

No Power	Confirm that the power adapter is plugged into an unswitched outlet. Confirm that the outlet has power by plugging in another device or appliance.
No Internet Connection	Check for an Internet signal using another device such as a cell phone, tablet, or laptop. If there is no signal on these devices, then there is a problem with the Internet.
