Other appliances in the vicinity? I believe there are some cordless telephones that operate on a frequency that can interfere with wireless networking.

Older cordless phones that work on the 2.4GHz frequency will seriously muck up WiFi, as will most any microwave oven less than two years old.

I ended up with the newer phone. It's the modem, not the router this time. I think it's dead. Someone told me Cox is not supporting the older modems, and I need to call and see if mine is on the replacement list.

I can connect to the wireless network but not get on the internet, even directly plugged in.
