Here's what I'd try.
You're line needs a bit of optimizing. Your power figures/errors are a little out of sync.
1. Remove any splitters, amplifiers, attenuators, cheap cables, extended runs, kinked coax lines. Hook the modem up directly where the line enters the house. Rerun this same screen snip that you did.
2. contact cox again. I've had reps send the wrong configuration file before. Try talking to another rep to have them resend the configuration file/partition file.
3. If that doesn't work, have them check your line. You're power figures vary to much and have quite a few errros in them. Most are correctable ones but its still a lot.
