Down stream blinking on C6300-AC1750
Hello All, I'm hoping someone can help. My down stream light on my modem is blinking. While I still have internet it is SLOW! I swear dial up back in the day was faster. I'm using C6300-A1750 Cab...

I just wanted to close this thread out. It was indeed the ISP provider, xfinity, all they had to do was resend a signal to my device and it was up and running effectively again. Thank you all who've replied. :smileyhappy:

yes it is.
you have a lot of errors in your line. Again, check you line.
Preferrably move the modem to right where the coax enters the home to prevent wiring in the home being the issue. If this doesn't help, then your isp needs to check the line.

my isp is xfinity. :smileyindifferent:
I've contacted them today after resetting the modem yet again. They sent a signal to my router and it went up to 44mbps then back down to 4.1. first, they told me to replace the modem. When I insisted that my ethernet and downstream were both blinking they begrudingly sent a tech request to come out on Sunday.
I've been reading forums and all of them say the tech is going to say to "buy a new modem" but all was fine until last week when my internet went down.
All of my connections are tight and the modem, ethernet and cable line are all within 2 feet of each other. It's got to be on their end.
Anything I can do in the mean time?

Not really. You can check the line outside of the home for any splitters/signal attenuators, bad connections.
