iskout Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 I just upgraded to Road Runner's Extreme package (30/5 Mb/s), which comes with the Ubee DDW3611 Router/Modem. The problem is that the firewall on the router actually blocks OCC. I haven't had any problems with any other websites, and if I disable the firewall, then I can access OCC, but I'd rather not have to leave my firewall off. Anyone have any experience with this router? I can't find any way to change the firewall's settings, though I haven't really looked through everything (the UI on this router is pretty irritating).

I'd say either upgrade the firmware on the modem/router, or just get a new modem all together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that this is the only DOCSIS 3.0 enabled Modem that TWC has, and I need it for my internet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iskout Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 There's plenty of DOCSIS 3.0 modems you can buy aftermarket.. Yes, but TWC doesn't allow "non-certified" modems. I've tried with my old modem, which kept dropping my internet connection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCRO Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) That sucks! Hmmm does the router config have any type of firewall settings built into it? That really just blows. Now I know why everyone says TWC is a pain. Edited February 27, 2012 by MJCRO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmb938 Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Well you can just ask them for a modem and not a modem/router combo. I have TWC and only have the modem and make sure they only give me the modem when I upgrade to the new ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I know why everyone says TWC is a pain. I can't find anything that adjusts settings for the firewall. It's quite irritating, honestly.

I might try that, thanks! Edited February 27, 2012 by iskout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 If they won't give you just a modem you could also turn the firewall off and just set it to bridged mode and put another firewalled router behind it that would allow you to make changes if necessary.
