Re: Constant flashing LEDs on SurfBoard4200 :-(
said by devrob:
Is there anyone who has any clues as to what the flashing LEDs mean?
Taken from the Powerlink website (specific page found here):
LED Light Descriptions
Power: When the Power light is flashing, the modem is running a self-diagnostic. When the Power light is on steady, the modem is on.
Receive: When the Receive light is flashing, the Surfboard is searching for the downstream (incoming) frequency. When Receive light is on steady, the downstream channel has been acquired.
Send: When the Send light is flashing, the Surfboard is searching for the upstream (outgoing) frequency. When Send light is on steady, the upstream channel has been acquired.
Online: When the Online light is flashing, the Surfboard is searching for the network connection. When the Online light is on steady, the network connection is active.
Activity: When the Activity light is flashing, information is being transferred across the network by your modem. When the Activity light is off, the Surfboard is not transferring any data.
So it sounds like a signal issue because the modem is having trouble locking on to the proper frequencies, which means not much can be done by the phone tech support.
