This problem was driving me crazy and I finally found that the isp cable going to my modem wasn't fully secure. I had to really press it into the the metal sheath and clamp it down so it would stay in place.
Hi
Can you please confirm that your issue is resolved like you said. I am having the same issue with my "like new" C7000v2. I did reconnect the cable in to the cable connector behind the modem several times. When I boot the modem router the upstream light is solid green for about 10-12 minutes and it starts steadily blinking again forever. According to the manual blinking green means "The unit is scanning for an upstream channel." (page 10) The wired and wireless connections both seem to work fine and upon checking the netgear genie GUI to the modem router for the "Upstream Bonded Channels" I see that 4 channels are locked and 4 are not.
This seems like a common problem on these devices.
