Cox modems have a tendancy to lock into one MAC address.

Disconnect all cables ? Ethernet, power, and coaxial line.
Wait one minute, connect the power and turn it on ? wait 20 seconds.
Disconnect the power ? wait 20 seconds ? connect the coaxial line and the power cable, turn it on.
Wait for the lights to go steady and connect the Ethernet cable to the modem and to the router.
