Motorola SB5100 Cable Modem Power Lght Flashes




By mykulv on Jul 16, 2009

" "
I usually put the modem in Standby when I'm not using it. Went in the other night and the Power Light was Flashing.
All other lights were solid (activity light flickered noe and then).
I know it means it's checking diagnostics... But it kept flashing for like 2 hours. Turned off, disonnected power, plugged back in... It cycled back to Power light flashing. What do I need to do? Get a new modem? This one is 8 years old.
Thanks.

Call your Internet Service Provider.
They can remotely "connect" to the cable-modem, and diagnose it.
