The behavior of the Internet LED is now as expected after I upgraded my RS700 to the latest firmware version 1.0.9.6. The LED now blinks white when connected successfully to the internet and traffic is present. Thanks for this FW update which also fixed a number of other issues. Here is a link to the update: New - RS700S Firmware Version 1.0.9.6 Released | NETGEAR Communities for those who may be interested.

Here is the modem information you requested: Manufacturer, Hitron; model, CDA3-35. It is connected to my RS700 through its RJ-45 Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps port. According to the router it is connected to the model at 1000Mbps/Full speed. The Internet light on the RS700 is white and, as far as I can tell, it never blinks. The modem internet light does blink showing internet traffic is present.

Possible how the RS maybe interactive with your particular ISP modem.
If the system is working then just let it run.
