USING THE CABLE MODEM
•Activity – Indicates the existence of data traffic in the cable lines. The light is off when no data traffic is present and flashing when data activity exists.
•Email – This light flashes when you have mail. (Check with your service provider to make sure they offer this feature.)
If all of the lights are flashing simultaneously, it means the cable modem is automatically updating its system software. Please wait for the lights to stop flashing. Do not remove the power supply or reset the cable modem during this process.
RESET SWITCH
•The reset switch can be found behind a “toothpick hole” on the back panel. It may be used if the cable modem has been taken out of service in one location and is being reconnected to a different service, or if certain files become corrupted.
1.Press and release the switch to make it perform the same function as power cycling the cable modem (i.e. removing and reconnecting the power supply).
2.Unplug the modem from the AC power. Press and hold the factory reset button while plugging the modem into AC power. Continue holding the button. Release the button when all lights come on (about 5 seconds). This will return the modem to a factory “out of box” condition.
