Yes. It is currently supplied by Time-Warner to subscribers who have both internet and telephone service.If you have a problem, telephone Time-Warner Support. They may ask you to provide one or more of the units numbers (ie: S/N. MAC addresses) on bottom label.

It's the same one time warner uses, so I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible

I also cannot connect to the internet service of TW with this modem. On the activation process, error message is displayed "your modem is not approved by TW". If there is solution, please let me know.

I have two at 2 different homes with time warner and they work fine. I have had no issues and the guy that come to hook them up had no issues installing them. Great product for the money!

The only adapter I have connected is the Time Warner adapter, with the cable card. My TiVo box is hard wired w a Cat 5 to my Clear Wire Internet box. I'm able to access NetFlix, Pandora, Hulu & more w no problem and watch streaming TV.

Yes, my mum is using it with Time Warner. Follow the instructions to find the code - it was a bit of a challenge, then remember to hit the "ADD" button once you have both the TV and the cable box figured out. It has been working perfectly for the last few months. Make sure you keep the old cable remote out of the hands of the user.

Yes, I have Time Warner and this is the same model of modem that they had used to hook me up but would not sell to me.

It's hard to know how to respond, because you don't say what ports your router has - or what OS you're using. The spec is pretty complete, and yes, there is no ethernet. If this is really vital, I might try connecting this to a specific host machine (I use Firewire) and then remote mounting it on other machines. (This is easy in the mac world, and I'm sure there are Windows solutions.) Hope this helps. At least, it's probably better than, "Huh?"

This cable modem should work with any cable system that calls for compliance with DOCSIS 3.0 and it its backwards compatible with prior standards. Should work with Time Warner.

I am not familiar with Time Warner. Based on my previous experiences I would say yes BUT I would encourage you to see if any others have had success utilizing this modem instead of the issued TWM. If it does, or does not work, please add your results to this thread. It would be appreciated. Best of luck my friend.

It works with cable. To be sure, you need to check with Time Warner. They should have a list of modems that are compatible.

I purchased this device for use with Time Warner (WI) but they could NOT get it to work and put in one of their devices.

I have the exact same DVR on Time Warner Cable. And it works fine. The DVR recognizes the Expander and works fine. Unless your cable company loaded special firmware in the DVR to prevent the use of expanders, you shouldn't have any trouble.

I don't use the SB5101U with Time Warner, so I don't know, but you can google "Time Warner modem" and click on "Buy Your Modem / Time Warner Cable, or go to this page: http://www.timewarnercable.com/en/residential-home/support/topics/internet/buy-your-modem.html

I'm not sure about Toshiba. I hooked it up to a Sony Bluray player and it works fine for me (using the Ethernet cable).

Sorry. I can not answer that question. I just do not know. I sent the damn thing back because Time Warner Cable would not let me use phone side of the modem. Sorry.

No it will not replace time warner. to use this box you will be required to have the Ematic remote and the TV remote because the Ematic will not turn on or change TV stations. on a scale of 1 to 10 I give the Ematic a 3.

I have comcast so I cannot help with time warner. However, comcast insisted that this would only work if I bought it from some online outlet, and it works just fine. So take it all with a grain of salt...just go straight to the tech support people to get it set up, not the customer service account people. You might try calling the tech support people before you order and see what they say.

Get a better internet connection and use a Ethernet wired connection to go on-line (no WiFi). Had the exact same issues until I discovered that my standard Time Warner standard internet connection was barely able to keep up with the HD bandwidth requirement and my WiFi signal was only average due to the router being on the other end of the house. This resulted in many frequent video breakups and rebuffering episodes, which was annoying to say the least and discouraged watching online content. Broke down and pulled CAT6 cabling throughout the house, and upgraded Time Warner to Turbo level to get close to 20Mbs vs. the standard 10Mbps. A one time pain, but it makes all the difference in the world. Will never go back to using WiFi again except for basic web surfing on the laptop. Also, using the right router can make or break the difference. I got rid of my Time Warner provided WiFi integrated router to a dedicated Cisco small business router. Huge difference, and can now run gigabit, which far exceeds the requirement of what my Samsung TV & BluRay requires.
