CM1000V2 DS light flashing but internet connection is great
A couple of weeks ago the downstream light on my CM1000v2 started flashing. I've been using this modem since March of 2020. The light becomes solid green with a reboot, but it only lasts for 1 to 4...
Problem solved. Replace the section of coax in the attic. The connectors were installed poorly. Used a quality quad shied rg6 and compression connectors.
Hi Saint_Dad,
Good day!
Thank you for reaching out. The blinking light behavior on the downstream LED indicates that the modem is scanning for a downstream channel same goes for the upstream LED if it will have the same behavior. You may check this information from the link below page 6:
