CAX80 Unresponsive / only shows power light
I recently came back home to a lack of wifi service. I went over to my CAX80 and saw that only the power light was lit. I unplugged everything and plugged it back in with no luck. Attempted a factory...
My cax80 just did the same thing. Did you get it to work or is it junk now?
Have you disconnected the modem from the coax line and factory reset the modem by pressing the reset button for 10 seconds then release and see if the front LED come to life?
pull the power adapter for 30 seconds then back in...

- Yes I've done those things. ( I haven't messaged those people). It doesn't work. Seems to be a prevalent issue that Netgear is running from. Honestly when I forget about the money I am about to spend to replace I'll be glad to be rid of Netgear especially after the fiasco of armor being renewed from Netgear and bitdefender. No more of that's them not us BS.
- Mine has done the exact same thing. Heading to Walmart to get something not Netgear. Hopefully I'll be able to figure out how to cancel armor so they don't auto renew again. So frustrating and costly, what a p.o.s.
The cax 80 problem has now reached my unit. I'm out of the expansive 1 year warranty. Anything Netgear can do for me? I'm guessing no because the one guy already tried all of this.
