ActionTec GT 701C Internet Light Solid Red despite DSL Light Solid Green - How to fix?

Hello
I can't get my ActionTec GT701c to get online in So Cal.
I get a solid Red Led on Internet.
DO I reset the Modem?
Go to the panel and do something there?
What shall I try?
Thank you for any tips and tricks.

Hey sands2k2, there is a reset button in between the Ethernet port and the power cord connection on the modem. You will need a paper clip or pin to press and hold the reset button down for 20secs then let it go for it to reset.

Red Internet Light on Technicolour TG587n v3

Hi, our Technicolour TG587n v3 modem's internet light has gone red and we are unable to connect to the internet with it thanks.

Hello,I do not have the same modem in front of me, so you may get a specific suggestion from another of the team.In the meanwhile, you should do some basic fault finding. Firstly, re-boot your modem with about 3 minutes switched off.Is you home phone working? Is it crackly in the background? You may have to ring technical support on 133 933 and they will usually have you do an isolation test to determine if the problem is because of an issues within your premises. Here is a link to do the Telstra Isolation Test:https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/General-Internet-KB/How-to-perform-an-Isolation-Test/ta-p/55014 Also check that if there is an outage in your area http://servicestatus.telstra.com/Hope that helps.

Internet light red on Gateway Max

My internet works fine but since returning from a couple of weeks away, I have noticed that the 'Internet' light on my Gateway Max is red.1) What does this mean?2) Do I need to do anything?3) What should I do? Thanks

Can you elaborate? I am having no problems accessing any sites.

Internet LED turns Red at a certain time of the day

I have a customer who last year would lose there internet connection like after 4:30pm each day. I was over there a couple days ago and saw it in action. I noticed that on the Actiontec GT704WG modem all the lights would start blinking and then the Internet LED would turn red with all other still green and then it would connect again for a minute and keep going through that cycle. Already did the reset of modem etc. Even happens when the Cat 5 cable is not plugged in. Could this be a power issue with the modem? Also, the ipconfig settings are fine when this is happening... Anyone have any ideas what the issue is? Thank You

All of the lights blinking? Would this include the power lights or only the Ethernet and Wireless lights? If it's the lather, it sounds like the computer searching for a way to the Internet using broadcast packets. The DSL light if it's blinking would indicate a loss of sync, and this can turn the Internet light red. Anyhow, if you can clear up what exactly was blinking, we can continue.

Westell 6100 internet light goes off about 2-5 time an hour

Hello,
I have a westell model 6100 modem and for about a week the internet light has been going off aobut 3 times an hour, it doesnt go red, it just goes black with no light. i was wondering if there was a way to fix it.

try replacing the dsl modem. i had the same symptoms. it took verizon one month to tell me the dsl modem is bad.

Internet light not lit, tech support not helping, PPP Down?

Hey guys, I have a problem. I just ordered Verizon's HSI and yesterday was my service ready date. I receieved a call saying that my service was ready, except it's not working at all.
I spent a majority of yesterday evening on the phone with tech support, which seemed like they were clueless and not helping. here's my problem.
I have a Westell 7500 modem/router. The DSL light is a solid green, however the Internet light is out. It's not red or green, just unlit. I logged into the router settings and i see this big warning: Gateway is not ready for internet connection. Well, that's no good. It also says DSL Connected, but PPP down.
I went into the connections of the router settings and I changed the login information to my verizon account information, but that didn't seem to do anything. It still says the PPP status is down.
No matter what I do, I am not connected to the internet it seems. I talked to a represenative on the phone and he said that the problem is on Verizon's end, but he seemed kind of confused so I don't know if he really knows what he was talking about.
I'm not really a happy camper with the service so far, so I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out here. God forbid I switch to Comcast and their lousy bandwidth cap, but if this isn't resolved soon I may have to resort to that.
Or if there is a tier 3 DSL support number with professionals, i would LOVE to have that.

Thanks for the replies. I have spoken with tech support but I really don't think they know what to do. Each time they just tell me to "go to the router setting and click connect. Oh it's not working? Well... I'll call back tomorrow. It will work tomorrow"
They're supposed to call me back "within 24-48 hours" with good news that my internet will suddenly be working. I'm not going to hold my breath. I'll update with any news as I'm sure i'm not the only one going through this.

Lost Connectivity (No Internet Light)

Just set up the "Up to 1M Dry Loop Annual Plan" and am leasing the Westell 6100 Gateway. My service was activated three days ago. Everything was fine for about 48 hours -- the primary computer (involved in setup) and three other laptops (via a wireless connection) all suffered no connectivity or speed issues.
Then, last night, I notice the "Internet" light is no longer lit. It is neither green nor red. Just unlit. All other requisite lights (DSL, Power, Ethernet) are green. However, I receive errors on the browser pages I attempt to open, suggesting that the “page cannot be found.” All other laptops recognize my wireless network and claim to have excellent connections, respectively, but none can connect to the Internet.
Any advice? I’m restarted the modem and the computers several times with no luck.

UPDATE: Ran through diagnostics and troubleshooting with Veirzon phone support. Technician will be out to the apartment tomorrow. I will let you guys know how it turns out.

WRT1900ac internet connectivity problem, internet light blinking white!!!!?

So my wrt1900ac has been blinking white starting tonight. I logged into the router and did a router reboot. That didnt work, then I rebooted my modem still didnt work.
After all that I did a factory reset to my wrt1900ac which was a big mistake cause now my wrt1900ac WILL NOT set back up. It keeps getting stuck on detecting internet.
So I did a factory reset on my modem which is c1000a, and after the factory reset my modem works fine connects to wifi no problem what so ever. I put my modem back into transparent bridge mode, and tried to re-setup my router. Once again the wrt1900ac internet light just blinks white and will not connect even though my modem works perfectly fine can someone help me out please??
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Disconnect the router from the modem and login via IP Address 192.168.1.1. If you can't check the gateway address of the IP address your router gives your device. The default gateway is the router ip address. It can change if the router detects an IP address conflict.

WRTSL54GS - Internet suddenly unavailable (internet light also out)

Accessing the internet through my router no longer works. I've tried connecting my computer directly to the cable modem, and the internet works fine (as I am using it right now to write this message). I use the same cable (as well as other ethernet cables) from the router's internet port, to my cable modem's ethernet port... nothing. The internet light on the router does not light up, and the PC link light on my cable modem stays dark. Ports 3 and 4 on the router also seem effected. Anything plugged into these ports do not give a link light. Ports 1 and 2 seem fine. I've tried the usual... power cycling both router and cable modem... reset the router to factory settings... reinstalled firmware... unplug the router for an hour.. etc. ...and I'm still having an issue.
Side note: There is a USB light on the modem that is on... I'm not sure if this has always been on during normal operation, but there is nothing plugged into the USB port on the router.
Side note 2: I've plugged the ethernet cable from the cable modem into ports 1 and 2 of the router, and I do get link lights and activity. ...but when I plug it into the correct 'internet' port on the router, no light.
There have been no changes to my router before this. I checked my email last night before I went to bed. I wake up in the morning, and I have no internet (through the router). No one else has access to my router. I even disable the wireless connection when it's not in use. As I said before, my internet (comcast) is working perfectly without the router.
Any suggestions? I've had no problems with the router up until now.
Thanks.

I made a mistake. I meant to say, the USB light is lit on the *router*... not the modem.
Also, I did a bit more troubleshooting. I plugged one ethernet cable into both ports 3 and 4, and router shows a connection as both link lights are lit on the router. I tried the same ethernet cable in ports 4 and 2, 4 and 1, 4 and 'internet' with no link lights lit at all. I'm beginning to think my router was somehow fried. No idea what could have caused it. I guess it's defective... but since it's been 4 months, I'm sure all warranties have expired. =(
Any other suggestions?

Thank you.

Since the "internet" light is not coming on , i'd say that it may be a problem with the "cable" you are using between the modem and the router....if the cable is good....try this....take one CAT5 cable and plug one end into the one of the LAN ports and the other end into the internet port of the router.....check if the internet light turns on...in case it does , try connecting a "hub" between the modem and the router..... let me know what happens

WRT54GS port lights always on, internet light always on, only power connected.

My WRT54GS v.2 wireless router has all port lights and internet light always on, even though the power is the only cable connected to it. The router won't detect the internet from my dsl modem. How can i fix this please, why is this happening ?
thank you.

Did you try to reset the router by pushing and holding the reset button for 30 seconds or more?

Hi there,
If you have a good battery or the batttery is good enough then try those steps , it may help :

1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed. BlackBerry desktop software
2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
"c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Hit Next and Finish and you are well on your way to getting your Blackberry back to life. Congrats! Just don't disconnect anything and let the lengthy process finish completely.
NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device. BlackBerry Software Download Site
Just select the appropriate carrier and network type, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.
Good luck.

Shuffle light shows red when it should show green.

Shuffle light shows red when it should show green. For example, when it's fully charged, the light shows red instead of showing green. When you play a song, the light blink in red too.

Are you sure the 2nd gen shuffle you have is a REAL Apple shuffle and NOT a
FAKE?
LED colors and functions are an indication it a FAKE...

I have an internet light, but my internet does not work.

Ok so here's the deal. My knowledge of computers definetly above average, but i'm not a genius. OK. I have a westell modem\router combo. The signal is so weak on it that i can't even connect my psp with it in the next room. So i bought a Linksys Router. I disabled the routing ability on the westell modem and made it a bridge. I then connected it to my Linksys WRT54G Wireless Router. Everything works fine. all the correct light come on. The only problem is, the internet light comes on, but i have no acess to the internet. I then contacted Linksys tech support on the phone and talked with them and i downloaded EasyLink Connect, but when i run it, it can't detect the Linksys router. I know its connected because i can type in my ip address and change the settings of the router. I have no idea what to do now if anybody has even the slightest idea of what to do, please help. Thanks
-Awz

Alright...if you have converted the modem in to bridge mode you should be having username and password...connect modem >> router >> pc, reset the router back to default settings and power cycel the router, logon to router's setup page and use PPPoE encapsulation instead of Automatic confg. DHCP and put username and password...click on the status tab and try connecting to PPPoE server...let me know the results.
