Re: Internet lights out, no US, slow DS
Have you checked the coax cable, these can be easily damaged?

The coax cable appears to be fine to me. I traced it from the house to the box and don't see any damage.

Re: Internet lights out, no US, slow DS
I was thinking more of the connector ends, typically a bent centre pin or the connector itself simply loose, it is also possible for the centre core of the coax to break if the cable is bent too much. This is perhaps less likely if the router suddenly stopped communicating with the ISP without it being moved.
Do you have any friends or good neighbours using a cable ISP where you could connect your router just to see if it detects a signal from the ISP equipment?
Is you router still within the hardware warranty period? Is so you could contact Technical Support who may offer you an RMA if they agree it’s a hardware failure.

Re: Internet lights out, no US, slow DS
Unfortunately I don't have any friends using cable internet. I just went out and bought another C3700. I plugged it in and got the exact same issue. internet light is black, DS light is slow blinking. My router is still under warranty, only 4months old but I don't have a receipt or anything like that for it. Forgot to register it as well. But it appears the issue isn't with the router.

Re: Internet lights out, no US, slow DS
Well I would suggest that if it was working for months, suddenly stopped working, and a brand new replacement is also not working in the same way, then the problem is most likely on the ISP side. If the ISP still insists the problem is with the router then maybe you could convince them to send a technician round to check the connection with their own approved router?
