Time warner cable modem

I am having trouble setting up my wifi with the Arris Time warner Cable Modem. I can get connectivity to the wifi, but it doesnt stay connected and the wifi light on the modem turns off. To set up the wifi i went to this cite: http://192.168.0.1/
I thought following steps on the cite would solve my problem, but again, I dont know how to keep it connected. PLEASE HELP
I'm not that tech savy so i sont know what alot of the acronyms mean

WiFi via cable company modems normally is not that good. I would get an Apple Airport to simplify matters. At least then you can use Apple's own software that has easy to go through steps. Just remember to plug in your airport to the WAN port when connecting to LAN port of the cable modem via ethernet.

When I connect Time Capsule to Time Warner Cable Modem, amber light flashes

I want to use Time Capsule as my primary wireless network base. When I connect my Time Capsule directly to my Time Warner Cable Modem, the amber light flashes and Time Capsule won't appear in AirPort Utility on my MacBookPro. I've tried unplugging everything and waiting to reset cable modem and Time Capsule.
Before I got the Time Capsule, I used a wireless router. The only way I can get Time Capsule to work is as a guest on my old wireless router network. I can't get the Time Capsule to configure itself directly with my Time Warner Cable Modem.
Any advice would be most appreciated.

This situation is pretty common now and it has nothing to do with the any of the routers but rather how cable modems are configured to work. They seem to latch on to the first device connected to them whether it be a router or a computer and will not allow any other device to access their network. The solution is to power off the cable modem and wait a minute. While you're waiting disconnect the old connection from the cable modem. Power up the cable modem and then connect the new device, router or computer, to the cable modem. Give it a few seconds to complete the connection and you should be ready to go. You have to do this every time you switch connections to the cable modem. This is also why you should set your router to serve addresses so that you don't have to do the cable modem samba when you want to connect a new device to the network.

Using airport express to extend Time Warner cable modem wifi signal

I just today got a Time Warner Cable Arris modem with built-in wifi. I'd like to use my 802.11n Airport Express base station to extend the TWC network wifi signal to other parts of my house, but I can't get the Airport Express to shake hands with the TWC modem.
In Airport Utility, under the "Wireless" tab, I've selected "Extend a wireless network". I am able to select my TWC network under "Wireless Network Name." Wireless Security is set to "WPA2 Personal." But when I click "update" the airport express fails to join the TWC network, and my Airport Express signal disappears; I am only able to get the signal back by resetting the Airport Base Station with a paperclip.
Applecare tells me that I might be able to use the Airport Express to extend my TWC network, but they do not support that process. Is there any way to do what I'm trying to do? Are there settings in Airport Utility I need to change? I'd appreciate anyone's help.
Thank you.
Todd

You need TWO Airport units, one to function as the main radio and the other to function as an extender. I used two Express units.
Configuration is simple if you start from a factory default condition. Then connect the main Airport to AC power and finally to the Internet modem (or modem/router). Open Airport Utility on your Mac or other computer and accept all of the recommendations. After confirming that it works, insert your desired administrative and WiFi passwords.
Then connect the extender to AC power. As before, open Airport Express on your Mac or other computer and accept all of the recommendations. No need to add password info.
Do not expect the Airport to respond instantly to the configuration commands. BE PATIENT!

My new airport extrem wont connect with my time warner cable modem

My new aiport extrem wontconnect tomy time warner cable modem

Have you power cycled the modem for long enough to deregister the previous client/router MAC address.. it can take 20min or longer off time. If the cable modem is also a router then the AE has to be in bridge mode.
Sometimes there are connection issues.. modem to WAN port of the AE..
Exactly what modem do you have?
Are the connectivity lights on when you plug in ethernet?

HT1331 I just bought a airport wireless router I have a time warner cable modem. I have hook up the modem correctly to my new apple airport router and my modem is not working with the apple airport router. what do i need to do?

I just bought a airport wireless route and I have a time warner modem. My problem is my modem is not connecting to my apple airport router. What do I need to do?

Power cycle the cable modem.. you may try leaving it off 5min.. might be enough.. sometimes you need 15min or even longer.. Followed by power cycle of the AE.
Nothing else should be connected to the modem.. except the router that will get the public IP as they only hand out ONE>

HT1126 I've just connected to a Time Warner cable modem and am no longer able to connect to the internet using our Airport Express.

Would love some suggestions as to ho to get thi airport working again!

I too just got time warner. I now have a motorola surfboard sb 6141 attached to my airport extreme. I have had problems with the AE when I was on DSL. I had to unplug it on average every 2 days to reset it as I would loose my WIFI connection. I've updated it to the most recent firmware and I reset it to factory condition when I joined Time warner today.
The modem and router are in the kichen and if I'm on my laptop there the connection is almost alway great. But occasionally it becomes bad. In my office on the iMac the eventhough the signal strength is excellent the speed is either great or exceedingly slow. If I unplug the router and plug it back it, it becomes speedy again in the office. So I guess I need a new router, but this one is only a year old. Any suggestions?

Airport Extreme 6th generation and Time Warner, Arris modem - no internet on mac

After installing a new Time Warner Arris modem we have encountered the following issues:
Light is green on the airport and everything appears normal
Wifi only works on iPhones, roku, and windows laptops.
Ethernet from airport extreme is also working (xbox one works fine).
Wifi internet does NOT work on Mac computers (we have two in the house both running Yosemite). The light on the airport is green and the macs can connect to wifi but cannot connect to the internet (DNS issue?).
The wifi on my mac yosemite laptop does work on my office wireless and anywhere else but home.
Backstory:
So a few months ago I purchased a brand new 6th generation Airport Extreme 802.11ac. It worked fine with our old generic Time Warner cable modem until we forced to upgrade to a new Arris modem/router combination this weekend to upgrade our internet speeds (I don't recall the model I can get this later). We told TWC that we did not need a router and would prefer to use the Apple router but they said it would work just as before by just plugging it into the ethernet port.
Initially we had network errors and I had to change from NAT to Bridge mode on the airport extreme and this worked for about a day. The next morning I could only get internet and wifi on my iPhone or a windows machine elsewhere in the house.
What I tried (none of these worked):
resetting the router and modem worked briefly but the problem repeated itself a few hours later or after connecting to a different wireless network.
deleting network config files (http://osxdaily.com/2014/10/25/fix-wi-fi-problems-os-x-yosemite/).
deleting the wireless network from saved networks and connecting again.
Again this is a problem with mac laptops ONLY. I have no machines running an older version of OS X so I can't test that easily (I can borrow one from a friend to rule that out). We have 2 Mac computers both running yosemite and both have the same problem. Every other wireless device in the house works like a charm. Any ideas?

(using a White, new Surfboard 6141 and Time Warner as provider)
This is a simple cable modem, that will deliver only one IP address to the AirPort Extreme.
My apple extreme in set in Bridge,(by default it is a 2007 model. Has never been a problem when I used Verizon.
Bridge Mode is not the correct setting for the AirPort Extreme. It needs to be in a Router Mode of DHCP and NAT.
Bridge Mode would have been the correct setting with a Verizon modem/router......but the SB6141 is not a router....it is a simple modem.
You can try to make the settings change to see if that will work, but in most cases when you are making a modem change on a network, it is recommended to first reset the AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings (to wipe older and possibly conflicting settings), and then configure the AirPort to work with the new modem.

Recently upgraded my service with Time Warner Cable to Extreme speed and got a new Motorola Surfboard SBG6580, now I get Error -50 constantly. Anyone else have this issue?

I just upgraded my service to Extreme with Time Warner Cable and got the motorola surfboard sbg6580 modem. Now when I try to dowload any videos or TV shows on iTunes, I get an Error -50 mid download. Anyone have a solution for this? I am using a PC, not a Mac computer.

I don't want a used replacement phone when I just bought mine. I have had your "like new" replacements before for my basic phone and had a ton of issues straight out of the box, which is why I don't want one when my phone is so new and I have had issues since day 1! Not once on my several calls to tech support, did anyone tell me to go exchange it the first 2 weeks. That is just one reason they want to send me a replacement. Another is the USB does not work properly, I can't use it to do anything but charge the phone- and my husband has the same phone so I know is not the cord or the computer because his works perfectly. The connection was sporadic so I just installed a new SIM card. So far that has helped with dropping 4g all the time. I have never been able to back up my contacts, spent 2 hours on the phone with tech support the first night I got it just trying to sync the contacts from my old phone. It never worked, I had to hand input the numbers. If Verizon won't do right by be and give me a new phone, I at least would like them to get mine working like it should have when I bought it.

What TC internet configuration should I use so it can handle Time Warner Cable's constant changing of IP Address?

Today is the third day that I have reconfigured TC internet settings so I can connect (again and again) to the internet. Time Warner Cable's IP seems to be changing daily. Your help will be very much appreciated!

You have to use DHCP.. there is no other option that will work because the modem is not a router.. Unfortunately apple hide any more sophisticated controls so there is nothing much you can do other than power cycle the TC when it gets lost.

Does Time Capsule and Time Warner Cable Road Runner work together?

I have Time Warner Cable Road Runner internet serve. I am currently using a Linksys WRT54G WiFi router to use my internet with my MacBook Pro. I am thinking about replacing my Linksys with a Time Capsule. Will the Time Capsule work with TWC Road Runner? I have looked all over with google and have not found an answer. I heard that you can't clone the MAC address of the Road Runner modem. To get my Linksys to work I had to clone the MAC address. Is this true?

I use time warner road runner ripoff and also have it hooked to my vonage router,a linksys with 2 telephone ports and 4 additional ports one of which is given to the TC, another to slingback and another to xbox and finnally he network printer.
The Linksys router , I believe is the main router and the TC is added on as a secondary router ad you choose this during set up, it can either be visible or invisible extending your present wireless setup.
After much tinkering I managed to get it working on the network, the TC that is seen by both my MacPro's and my OQO UMPC that is running Vista. I also hooked the TC up to a USB hub, another linksys, and attached a 1.5 GB Maxtor external drive. I plan to add another so I will have a total of 4 GB of storage.
The main problems I have encountered is my Mac pro seeing the configuration after going to sleep, seems to take a really long time and sometimes I have to restart the TC.
So far all I can say is it IS NOT as easy as Apple would like us to think it is. A lot of tinkering, and you should have a tad of knowledge of what your doing or your going to screw it up. Patience helps as well.
cheers.

Time Capsule and Time Warner Cable

I am having problems with the initial set up of my time capsule. We have an iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 Gz and an internet connection through Time Warner Cable (with the requisite cable modem). During set up of the time capsule, I keep getting a message that the time capsule does not have a valid IP address. Do I need to contact TWC? It is my serious hope that I will not have to, as I think TWC's customer service is wretched.

You can normally get this going yourself. The cable modem has only one public IP allocated to the first MAC address to connect.. So you need to power down the cable modem.. power down the rest of the network as well... although not strictly required.. Make sure the only thing plugged into the cable modem is the TC via the WAN port. Restart the cable modem.. wait about 2 minutes for everything to settle down .. then turn on the TC.. it should then get the IP that is offered. If it still fails turn off the cable modem for longer period of time .. even overnight. But it normally takes just a few seconds.. if that fails, try 5min and then 15min .. after that overnight.
Tell us the results after each time.. I don't have TWC but have been a cable customer in the past and the system does keep changing. One minute off was more than enough but they changed and some of the modems that have phone services, also have battery backup.. if that is the case you need to drop the battery out as well.

Mid 2011 mbp i7 with a SSD has problems, including grey screen/blue screen/beeping/freezing when I stream live video (i.e. watch espn or time warner cable) Help? Ideas?

Recently my Macbook Pro (June 2011, i7, 8gb RAM, 512gb SSD, AMD Radeon 6750, Mountain Lion - since July - currently 10.8.2) has been presenting me with an array of problems, usually initiated when I am streaming live video. I was streaming Time Warner Cable on 12/9 and it gave me what looked like the blue screen of death. It started up after about five attempts that time. The other day, after about a week of not using the computer, it wouldn't boot past the grey screen. I (option) started it and it gave me two boot choices, the regular HD and a "10.8 restore" option. The HD gave me the grey screen and the restore option gave me the dark blue screen. I reset PRAM and that didn't work. After a force (x) start it worked. Today, I was using "Watch ESPN" and the screen froze and the computer did some kind of repeating RAM beep or something. I rebooted and it started up fine. I'm not watching any videos anymore, but this is a problem since the primary purpose for my mbp is video editing. I'm still under AppleCare but I find more solid answers in the forums or at least better questions for the AppleCare people.
Anybody have similar experiences, or a solid idea of what the heck has happened to my machine?

I'm not really sure what method that person was talking about. I just read he had a successful install so I posted it.
But I'll hazard a guess
1. copy your entire drive to a backup drive
2. boot into that drive and test it out - make sure its a flawless backup, it works, and the hard drive has no problems
3. eject that drive, disconnect it and reboot into the leopard install dvd
4. erase your main hard drive using disc utilities on the leopard install dvd -- you've made a backup, made sure that backup was good, and disconnected it so it's currently safely disconnected from the leopard install you're about to do. Also, on the hard drive you're erasing and installing leopard on to, many people recommend "Zeroing" it as well as erasing it. That option is part of the erase function in disc utilities on the leopard install disc.
5. do a clean install of leopard
6. follow step 4 from that original post exactly as that person described to do.
7. read the rest of what they said
That's pretty much it. With the backup/erase/clean install/import/ you pretty much get everything you need exactly the way you want it with very few things missing -- and you've done this over a clean install. Plus that poster did mention that you can select what you want to import from your backup hard drive.
It sounds like its a "clean install" method that gives you control via "import from machine" option in the installer. Control over what parts of your "old mac" you want to import into your "new leopard mac".
Hopefully that helps. It sounds more involved, but its actually pretty quick and provides you with a perfectly save backup in case anything goes wrong with the leopard install.

Safari won't open the time warner cable server

safari won't open the time warner cable server, I'm trying to watch amc shows through the website, and it asks you to pick a server to login to. I chose my time warner cable server and it won't connect. ATandT works, but mine won't. I've tried restarting and downloading newer versions but it is still not working.

Don’t worry about it.
I’m going to cancel the subscription.
I maged to download it and install it, but it’s constantly damaged and won’t open.
I may as well just forget it and cancel.

Apple TV and Time Warner Cable app

Does anyone know if Time Warner Cable is even considering an app for cable tv that is so popular with the Roku?

No one in these user to user support forums would have any way of knowing.
