Put your TWC Ubee Router to Bridge Mode

  1. Log into the Ubee modem admin by going to http://192.168.1.1/TlModeChange.asp with user/user as username/password.
  2. Browsing through the settings I discovered that the wifi was on and forming a network that I had told them not to do (so much for security) and I shut that off.
  3. The key thing though is that you want to change the mode from “Gateway” to “Bridge”. That makes the modem *just* a modem and not a router (it sucks as a router). 
  4. Install your router and voila! you just save 45 minutes trying to get connected to technical support.
