How and When Can I Upgrade My Time Warner Phone?

Time Warner is an American media and entertainment company. It operates some of the most popular film and television brands in the world. It is organized into three major business divisions; Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc, Home Box Office, Inc, and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.

It is one of the most popular providers of TV and Internet services. To access digital cable, you need a setup cable box. Time Warner uses it to ensure that you can access the channels you pay for. You also get on-demand services, on-screen schedule menus, and pay-per-view services. Follow these steps to upgrade your Time Warner software;

  1. Ensure that the cable box is connected to the cable which runs from the box to the Time Warner wall outlet
  2. Ensure that the cable box has power. When you press the power button, a power light should come on
  3. Turn off the TV and unplug your cable box power supply from the wall outlet
  4. Wait a few seconds and turn off the TV
  5. Unplug the cable box power
  6. Reconnect the cable box power supply and wait. Your cable box channel may show lines or dots. Wait until it shows the time
  7. Press the power button to turn your TV on. If a software upgrade is available, you will see a message on the screen. The cable box will show a series of dots as an upgrade is downloaded. Do not turn off your box until the process is complete.

If you need help from Time Warner, you may seek support from their customer support team.

The best way to contact Time Warner is on the phone. It gives you the chance to speak directly with a representative. You don't need to worry about anything getting lost in translation. Explain to them that you would like to upgrade your phone and they will give you the help you need.

If you wish to speak with a representative but phone support is not an option for you, you may seek support on live chat. It is the best alternative to phone support.

Email support is a good option if you don't necessarily need to speak with a representative. Send them a brief email with the details of your problem. They will get back to you as soon as possible. If they ask you to provide extra information, do it as soon as possible. Email support may not be a good option if you need help fast. Going back and forth with the support representatives may take a while.

If you don't mind seeking support on public platforms, consider seeking support on Facebook and Twitter.
