i need to order cable, the best deal i can find is digital cable, roadrunner and digital phone for 89.99 locked in for two years... but the problem is to have wireless, you have to have a home computer or some box thing that cost an extra fee a month. damnit this shit sucks end rant
12/2/2008 3:38:11 PM
^or, go buy a router for $15 and you have wireless without using someone else's equipment
12/2/2008 3:39:29 PM
the router has to be hooked to a home computer or the box
12/2/2008 3:44:27 PM
^twc gives you a modem. purchase a router and connect it to said modem.what box thing are you even talking about? and RR doesn't have to go straight to a computer, just to a router. [Edited on December 2, 2008 at 3:45 PM. Reason : .]

they said the box/modem has to be connected to a home computer for me to use my laptop wirelessly

^^umm no. At least I've never heard/seen that. You can connect a router to the modem, which in the past, TWC includes in your RR package (no extra cost)
12/2/2008 4:00:21 PM
I fuckin hate twc
12/2/2008 4:00:33 PM
^^^^ WTF are you talking about?For fucks sake all you need is a Netgear or Linksys or D-Link or whatever manufacturer you like's wireless router to hook up to the fucking modem. They make them so a fucking 4 year old with Down's can do it.I don't understand why people act like this shit is so fucking hard to understand.[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 4:01 PM. Reason : *]
12/2/2008 4:01:19 PM
lol all i have is my laptop, with wireless built in of course.they said to set up a my wireless net work i had to have a "home" computer to set my modem and wireless router up to, well thats what they told my mom.

The person on both ends of that phone call was an idiot.[Edited on December 2, 2008 at 4:08 PM. Reason : *]
12/2/2008 4:07:50 PM
lol so i dont need anything extra just hook up the modem to the wall and the router to the modem and my laptop will connect to that?
12/2/2008 4:14:55 PM
yeh. but you may want to enable security on your router (you'll need to hardwire to the router) [Edited on December 2, 2008 at 4:17 PM. Reason : .]

12/2/2008 5:39:59 PM
my internet always goes slow. but that is because i steal it. well it isn't technically stealing since there is free wireless in our courtyard. i pick it up in my condo (BARELY and only in some places)but i can't really complain if it screws up, because it is free.
12/2/2008 6:06:00 PM
lolPROTIP: don't listen to anything time warner tells you about how you have to set up your internet connection.
12/2/2008 6:07:57 PM
12/3/2008 9:53:09 AM
yea, f time warner. shit is slow as balls ever since we resigned our contract at work.. they're blaming it on our equipment even though I can plug straight into the modem and it's still slow as shit. they say "oh well the signal levels are fine and i can ping you so everything is just fine!1!"gr
