foxtel V6510 New ISP

Have just changed ISP which works on my netgear foxtel hub modem but the internet light is red as if there is a conflict, internet connection is fine.

Has anyone had this situation and been able to get rid of the red light ? have rebooted it to no avail.

   To _which_?

 

> [...] netgear foxtel hub modem [...]

 

   Firmware version?  Connected to what?  (Hint: If a device has
different types of DSL/Ethernet ports, then "connected to device" is not
enough detail.)  Configured how?

 

   I dimly recall reading some reports here of similar problems with DSL
modem+router models when the Ethernet WAN/Internet port is used instead
of the DSL port.

 

   Netgear may make the V6510, but it's an ISP-specific product with
ISP-specific firmware, so support for it is provided by that ISP.  You
could try complaining to Foxtel, but I wouldn't expect to get far.


   You could try a settings reset (and manual re-configuration), but I
wouldn't expect much. If you're using the Ethernet WAN/Internet port,
then you might also see if explicitly selecting Ethernet at ADVANCED >
Setup > WAN Setup : WAN Preference made any difference, but, again, I
wouldn't expect much.

 

> [...] which works [...]

 

   Tape something opaque over the offending LED?
