what happens is that when you are swapping more than one computer with the cable modem, the 1st computer registeres it's MAC address with cox's DHCP server when it gets an IP address
if you unplug that computer and plug the other in, you didn't release the IP address lease with the DHCP server what i used to do before i got my router is when in windows go to start and run then type in winipcfg and release the IP lease, then plug in your other computer and renew the address and it should work it just won't work when the DHCP server thinks that it still has an IP lease out already with another MAC address hope this helps Adam J.
