For some reason my router restarts randomly, and when it does it discounts anything connect to the LAN ports. Although anything connected through Wi-Fi stays on. For instance I will have my Xbox connected to wired (Ethernet), and my laptop will be wireless. When the router restarts I can still connect to the internet on my laptop, but then it will disconnect from Xbox live. I hope someone knows how to fix this because I don't want to call cox, and have someone come to my home, and then charge me.

Considering it's their router with faults you shouldn't have to pay. Just ask for a new router instead of someone coming out and basically doing fk all and charging you a hefty amount for something you can fix on your own.

Get a new router the see if the problem is still there.
