Re: cable outage in brooklyn?
said by khisanth9  :
I just got my cable and it doesn't work. I have the pcx1100 and I've read some other posts about it being problematic in ny, can I call them and just ask for a newer model or do I have to wait a week for tech to come out?
Well first off you should of started a new thread instead of digging up a 3 month old thread,  Ok Now for your problem, What seems to be the matter? If your cable light solid green?

First of all return that modem to wherever you bought it from. Call up Time Warner (718-358-0900) and get ahold of Tech support. Tell them your going to bring in your modem for an exchange. Get the address for a local payment center closest to you and take your modem there and exchange it. When you get home with your new modem call Time Warner again and let them take down the MAC Address of the new modem.

If Earthlink is your provider then you should of called Earthlink but if Road Runner is your provider then they should of provided you with a new modem and this goes into the Road Runner forum.

umm Time Warner Cable was supposed to give you a new modem, not make you go buy a new one. |
