First, make sure the ethernet cable is connected to the RJ45 jack on the modem. Try swapping cables if you can't verify it is a good cable.
The two most common reasons for no Ethernet link (enet) light:•Depending on what you connect the modem to, you may need a cross-over cable. If you are connecting directly to a computer or the WAN/Modem port of a DSL router, a standard, straight-through Ethernet cable should work fine. If you connect to a network hub, you will either need to put it in an "uplink" port or use a cross-over cable.
•The port on the 5360 will only work at 10 MBps. If you have a 100MBps hub or switch that doesn't support 10 MBps, it won't work. Also, if the network gear doesn't "auto-sense" the media but supports 10 MBps and 100 MBps, you may need to force it to 10 MBps. The same goes for computer network cards. Your manufacturer's documentation or web site should describe how to do this.
