Is my router going bad?
I am getting an organge light from my cable provided modem to my netgear router. Is the problem with the modem or my router? Thanks.

Turns out the modem needed to be replaced. Thanks for trying to help figure it out.

Sorry for the confusion. I am using my Netgear modem as an extension wi-fi. I have a cable plugged into the Arris leading to the Netgear and that plug is the one that is solid orange. I am not am home right now so I cannot provide the model number at this time. I can tell you that it is an older model (bought it about 7 years ago).

And that Netgear modem is? (Model number?)
How is it set up? As a wireless access point?
What is the make and model of the cable provided modem? Is it also a router?
