How do you operate a charter communications remote?

Charter Communications cable modem?

  • i want to buy a modem so i dont get charged $5 per month to least the darn thing. i found some at bestbuy that range from $50 - $150. also some on ebay and amazon. i want to know if any cable modem will work with my 3 meg charter highspeed connection. or what specific brands or models would work. then how do i set it up? just hook it up and go, or would i have to register it with charter?

  • Answer:

    I do not know about Charter, but most cable modems will work on various cables systems. The lease fee of $5 per month pays for support of the modem; hardware, and software, and connectivity. If you own the cable modem and something goes wrong with it you are on your own to resolve and/or replace it. They also may be unwilling to support connectivity problems. This doen not seem fair; but there are many manufactures and models and you cannot expect them to know the quirks of all of them. Here is a list of modems which are compatible to Charter Communications High Speed Internet (I would advise you to stay away from 3-com equipment. their support is almost non-existant for consumer products) What modem can I use? Charter High-Speed Internet is compatible with most cable modems, including: Motorola SB3100, SB4100, SB4101, SB4200 (Recommended), SB4220, SB5100 (Recommended), SB5120 (Recommended) 3COM 3CR29250, 3CR2940, 3CR29241 RCA DCM215, DCM225, DCM235, DCM245 (Recommended), DCM305, DCM315 (Recommended) Toshiba PCX1100U, PCX1200, PCX1500, PCX2000, PCX2200 (Recommended), PCX2500 Com21 DP111, DP121, DP1110XB, DP1110 (Recommended) D-Link DCM-202 Scientific Atlanta DPX110, DPX100 (Recommended) Ambit AM3350-CM, AM3345-CM Arris CM300 Belkin F5D5530-W Best Data CMX300 Broadxent CM8601 Castlenet CXC150 Corsma Phazer High Speed Surfing SM110, SM120 Linksys BEFCMU10, WCG200 (Wireless Gateway) NetGear CM212 SA Webstar DPX2100 (Recommended) SMC Networks SMC8002CM Siemens Speedstream 6101 Terayon TJ615, TJ715 (Recommended) Zoom TJ615, TJ715 (Recommended) Good Luck.

any brand should work as long as its a CABLE modem and not dsl and check the speed variety on the box and u could probably ask a worker at the respective store...if i was u id stay with the one they provide u becuase if it breaks they replace it not u yes the 5$ is annoying but if u keep ur service for more than 1-2 yrs itll save u i had a non charter modem work fine for a 2 month period then died

Most Cable service providers will provide a list of compatible brands/models on their web site, or just call them. Once you get your new modem give your provider a call so they can 'Provision' your modem. No it won't work without it (been there dun that) Good Luck
