After pressing the reset button for 10 seconds with the CAX80 connected to the ISP coax line, can you access the modems setup web page 192.168.1.1 at all with a wired PC and web browser?
How long have you had the modem for?

I've resorted to using my old c7000v2 and everything works fine, just not as fast as the cax80 when it worked. Cax80 I guess is destined for the trash... Anywords of wisdom?

Can you try pressing the reset button for 1 full minute then release...
Also might try doing the 30/30/30 reset process.

I'll recommend you reach out to a forum moderator and ask for there help. Seems like a RMA maybe needed here.
