Hi djrazr
l am aso a TWC customer. Have an Arris modem and TWC supplied Belkin F5D7234-4-BC -v1 router.
Your problem could be RF interferrence from other wireless networks. Changing the wireless channel on the router could make all the difference. Ideally, you want your wireless at least 3 channels away from any others. Run Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector to check the networks close to you.
Run Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector
Download and install
If you cannot access the internet with this PC, then you will need to copy the program across to the faulty PC
http://www.xirrus.com/Products/Wi-Fi-Inspector.aspx
Direct link to the program is here http://wpc.475a.edgecastcdn.net/0047...etup.1.2.0.exe
{If the above link does not work heres another link http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_download/fid,77196-order,4/download.html}
Then run and install the program - on a wireless enabled PC/Laptop
if you get an error - You need NET Framework installed for the WiFi Inspector to function.
Run the program
A user guide is available here http://www.xirrus.com/Products/Wi-Fi...uide1-2-0.aspx
post a screen shot of the program running - if there are a lot of networks showing can you click on "networks" top lefthand area - so we can see all the network information, and also post which network "Adapter Name" (1st column) is yours on the list
To post a screen shot of the active window, hold the Alt key and press the PrtScn key. Open the Windows PAINT application and Paste the screen shot. You can then use PAINT to trim to suit, and save it as a JPG format file.
To upload it to the forum, open the full reply window and use the Manage Attachments button to upload it here.

Note:
For a reliable (or robust as the Xirrus user guide says) wireless connection you need a signal of about -70 dBm or better.
If you are using the Mac OS then use http://www.istumbler.net/
