CAX80 DOWNSTREAM LIGHT BLINKS

KWE325 · ‎2022-08-14

On my CAX80 Nighthawk modem/router, the downstream light constantly blinks white, never solid, but I am connected and online. Is this a matter of concern or just a hardware anomaly? My ISP is Comcast / Xfinity. I do seem to be getting the speeds I expect with their "Extreme Pro Internet" package.

Please post a copy and paste of the modems connection status page.

Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem. Be sure the ISP provisions the modem correctly.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute then back ON.
