Rogers SMC Modem/Router No Link Lights this morning!?

Hi all, this morning I notices my "LINK" Lights on my Rogers SMC Router/Modem was off... I check... my internet still working on all my machines!! I reboot the SMC Modem 4 times... Still No Link Lights... It stay off! Also tried to reboot my WiFi router... no luck! I tried to plug my Laptop directly to the SMC Modem, still no LINK light.... so it isn't my WiFi Router... I do get a IP address to my laptop... and internet is working!

I think usually it should be blinking.... Did they have a firmware update???? last night??? The ONLINE light works... I remember the "LINK" light was still blinking last night!

What happen? Other then the light... everything are working.... Can someone check there Rogers's SMC Router???

They must have done something I have to enable DHCP to get internet from all my other computers. Jerks!

Looks like I have to turn the damn thing into a modem and connect it a router, sucks!

There is the possibility that the actual LED is faulty which is probably what it is.

Thank for the reply, so they may did a firmware update yesterday and had the light turned off!

Any other people have the same problem and can confirmed his/her SMC "LINK" light are now off?

Rogers have no desire to supply a modem only. With the modem/router combo, the router's partly under their control and easier to troubleshoot without asking customers to disconnect the router.

So what happens sbrook when many customers have their modem in bridge mode and their own router attached? How does Rogers troubleshoot in this situation?

Tell you they don't troubleshoot routers and have you connect directly to the modem. If there's still problems, they'll send a tech out.

I just got home.... and I saw my wifi light start to blink! They must did a firmware update and reset my modem.. and turn the wifi inside the modem back on! Crap..

So the old password didn't work?
