This is a little late but it may help anyone looking in the future: Wireless isn't the most stable consistent connection. Its great for generic internet but gaming is very demanding. You have the potential to run into hiccups with your connection. I quickly switched from a wireless adapter to this netgear powerline kit. Now the boxes will use the electrical wiring to transmit the signal so if the wiring isn't from one outlet to the other it won't work but it is almost as good as a direct ethernet connection (which is the best option if possible.)

I not not sure what the problem is but it could have something to do with where and I using the internet. I had no problems when I was at home but I have recently connected to a hotel internet signal during my stay with them and it get the same error. When plugged the ethernet cable in it worked fined. This leaves me to believe either my wireless board is fried, firmware has been lost, or the hotel has some sort of internet filter that prevents devices like Roku and Play Stations to drain their bandwidth.

These Arris Touchstones are made specifically for Time Warner Cable and have been returned. If you are lucky you will get one that works as a router and modem. I purchased two. One worked as both and the other only worked as a modem.

I am an avid online game player as well so I've been searching for different options for my network setup. I do not have access to a wired connection, so I had to go either Wifi or EOP (Ethernet Over Power). I've gone through 2 different Wifi Extenders (Netgear model WN2000RPT-100NAS & Amped Wireless SR20000G) as well as 2 EOP sets (Zyxel PLa4225 kit & this Linksys Homeplug AV2 Powerline Kit PLEK500). By far my best experience has been with the Linksys EOP. With the ZyXEL kit I experienced a poor connection and my download speeds were cut in 1/2 (10Mb down on a 20 Mb/sec circuit). I also experienced frequent lag spikes which just kill online gaming fun. My Netgear Wifi Extender was OK, but it quit working completely after a year. I purchased the Amped Wireless extender which was a lot better than the Netgear and did give me full connection speeds but with any Wifi device it was not a stable connection and would sometimes lag spike. I finally purchased the Linksys EOP kit and have great success with it. I get great connection quality, great speed (full 20 Mb down 2Mb up), with no connection drops. Bear in mind any network device that is wireless or transmit data over power circuits will fluctuate a little and won't be as reliable or stable as a direct wired connection. In my environment, I've found this Linksys to be as close to a direct wired connection as I can get currently.

I initially had the same issue as McKinney, but called my ISP and they found that the lack of signal boost was in my wiring, and fixed the problem. The antenna works great and attached easily to the standard actiontek PK5000 modem I bought through them. The TL-WA701ND looks to have the same antenna attachment and should work fine for you!

I have a TG862 Arris from Commiecast. I could not get it to work...but it did work well, sometimes, with the Belkin N600 router I have. I say sometimes because the connection kept getting lost.

Yes, this device is supported by Time Warner. Here is their supported modem list: http://www.timewarnercable.com/en/enjoy/better-twc/internet/internet-modems.html

Here is what I found out having just bought one (10/30/14). I was able to go on-line to Comcast after connecting the modem to the cable and a network cable directly to a notebook computer.The modem provisioned without any issues.The phone service work fine to.Here is the hitch...While there are no problems with the modem and it shows up on Comcast's OK modem list I found out the modem is still undergoing testing and not fully supported yet. This means you should be able to get standard internet speeds but if you have the higher speed blast service it will only transfer at standard speeds. They told me this should be fixed within a month... we will see ;) Here is what I found out having just bought one (10/30/14).

Check out this thread. http://community.linksys.com/t5/Print-Servers/WPS54GU2-and-Windows-7/td-p/337367 IIRC, I worked off of this thread, but it was a bit of a job with windows 7. I still had some connectivity/funtionality issues until I assigned a static IP address to the device. Also, google for drivers for the wps54gu - there may be something new out there by now.

I have a cable connection and an ancient wireless-G router. I haven't experienced any connectivity problems. My only problem so far is getting used to WIN 8 (I'm almost 66 and getting set in my ways :-D).

I use my with the router that timewarner provides with its service. If I were you I'd Google to find out. Wish I could have been more help.

I bought one for time warner cable in so cal. When I registered it w twc, my internet went from lightning fast to a slow crawl. I don't know if it was the device or intentional by twc, I assume twc slowed me intentionally.

It may have worked in the past, but it no longer works with Time Warner if your internet service is 30mbps or higher.Once you connect to a modem or computer it will shut down and restart repeatedly. Buy it at your own risk.

Reds, are you using a router only or are you using a modem and a router. If using a modem and a separate router then you may be able to use the Netgear instead of the Windstream. If using just a router, then you might have a problem using any router other than the Windstream. Naturally your provider will want you to use their router. I plugged my modem (an Actiontec) into the Netgear router and then connected my pc to the router. Nothing else to do but to register the router and it was working with no problems. Hope this helps.

Yes, I had Time Warner, and they too said that this modem would not work, however after being on the phone with the tech, and him sending the signal two or three times, I was connected...and it worked fine too! They want you to buy the best possible modems for the speed requirement to be the best...however these older modem/router combos do work fine.

I have Brighthouse here in Florida and I have had zero issues with the telephone. It worked well from day one and again when I purchased a used uBee to avoid the monthly fee. I have disconnected the wireless portion because it would continually drop the connection. Got an inexpensive (cheap) n wireless router and no issues to date. (Always a problem with the uBee wireless, never with the phone) Just call the cable provider after purchase and they will do the conversion of modems
