Common fixes for Cable modems
If the modem's @ light is on but there is no internet, try power cycling it.
- To perform a power cycle, unplug your modem from the wall for a duration of 30 seconds.
In the event that the @ light is off and the ⬇️ downstream light or ⬆️ upstream light is flashing try:
- Disconnect and reconnect the coaxial cable at the back, making sure it is securely attached.
