blinking light
on July 1, 2024
Posted by: Anonymous
modem seems to work ok, but the downstream light blinks all the time. This indicates it's scanning for a download channel. Download speed seems fine, but the blinking light is annoying just the same. I don't know if this is a modem issue or a cable issue. I have not pursued a solution since my download speed seems ok.

Activated the modem with Spectrum and it worked for 16.5 hours. Then it started rebooting over and over. Spectrum didn't see anything wrong other than the modem connecting and reconnecting. I went back to my 9-year old modem (also Netgear CM500).
We replaced a comcast modem with this and couldn't be happier, It's connectivity and speed are amazing. You will be happy if you purchase this model. We have noticed a huge increase in speed. Thank you.
