CM1000 v2 4/5 lights blinking quickly
I recently got a new CM1000v2 modem, to replace the modem/router combo I had been renting from Cox. After hooking it up, the power light blinks green and the three lights below it blink amber while t...
If you checked all that and a different modem is working and the CM is not, i would presume the CM modem maybe faulty. Possible the Power adapter tot he CM could be faulty. Something to try with a different same spec power adapter and see. If this still fails, the CM needs to be replaced.
Ok, that makes sense. I did try it (mistakenly) with a different brand new power supply that is 12v 2.5A, like I mentioned earlier. Do you think that would be a sufficient test to know whether the problem is the power supply, or would trying a different 12v 1.5A power supply (which is the spec it came with) be the only way to know for sure?
Again, thanks for your help.
1amp higher isn't going to make a difference, if there power supply doesnt' change the behavior, then the CM needs to be replance. Something to ask NG about to see what your options are.
