CM1000v2 Will not boot
We had this exact same thing happen. Xfinity had a multi-day outage, and part way through we discovered that our modem had the all-lights-blink problem.
We called Netgear support and they told ...
Xfinity can’t reflash the firmware because the firmware corruption prevents booting at all.
NETGEAR could reflash this unit with the original factory firmware. It’s foolish to suggest that they couldn’t do so if I mailed it back to them. But they simply won’t, preferring that I throw an otherwise perfectly useful cable modem into the trash because it missed the warranty window by 20 days.

With the ISP cable coax line disconnected, have you tried a 30-30-30 reset on the modem with nothing connected to it?
- Yup. NG support walked me through that and several other attempted actions. It continues to do nothing but the crazy-blink shortly after power-up.
