Internet LED Blinking

R7800 Internet LED Blinking
Hi: My Nighthawk router's Internet LED continues to flash white when the Internet connection to my ISP drops. I reboot the router (and my PC) and the orange no connection light blinks for a few seconds and then changes to white (even though the connection is down). I am working with a local WISP. The antenna/radio is on the roof and power and data are transferred over Cat6 cabling through a Powerline injector. There is a Cat6 cable from the injector to the Nighthawk (then from the Nighthawk to a Gigabit switch to my PC and other devices). This has happened since I first purchased the modem, and it does this regardless of what firmware version I use (I just updated to 1.0.2.28 and still have this problem. When I directly access the router via the Admin Interface, the first screen will show Internet Disconnected and is red, even though the white LED is still blinking. Is this router defective or am I missing something? Many thanks, P.Solved8.9KViews0likes4Comments
