Re: NYC TWC - Just got the Arris TG862 - can't access Web GUI

said by Titan01:

are you guys saying the pw for the wifi is basically easy to figure out?

that's what i told tw CSR and i said i felt unsecure about the pw. but they said its fine

The contractual agreement between TWC and Arris specifies defaults that put you at risk. They didn't intend to put you at risk, but they failed in their due dilligence to address the toxic flaw(s) that allows two-bit criminals to rip you off for all your worth.

So, don't trust the wifi, and wait for the case law to play out, but continue to trust the advice of the reps who post here.
