CAX80 All lights are blinking and port lights are solid
My NightHawk Model CAX80 has gone in to a blinking light mode. The top 5 lights are blinking fast and the bottom port lights 1-4 are solid, no blinking. I have tried a hard reset, I have unplugged and replunged several times. I have done this multiple times and rapidly. I have held the reset button for over 2 minutes. I cannot reach the router home page. It is not sending out a wifi signal or a wired signal. I bought the unit 6 months ago, and it has worked until last night, 27FEB21. I am at a loss? I have tried everything I know to do and have tried things I have found in help and troubleshooting. I cannot find a search that is specific to this problem? Any thoughts? Thank you in advance.

So try a reset with out the coax cable connected and just 1 wired PC. Press the reset button for 10 seconds then let go.
If this fails, I would reach out to NG support and ask about what your options are.
