Chapter 4
Using the telephony modem
This chapter describes the controls and features available on your cable modem and covers
basic troubleshooting procedures.
Indicator lights for your cable modem
Your cable modem LED indicator lights can be helpful when troubleshooting.
Wiring problems
If your cable modem begins flashing all its lights for more than 10 seconds, this indicates a
problem with the telephone wiring — the red and green wires may be shorted (touching), or
there may be undesired voltage on the lines. If this pattern persists for more than 10
seconds, disconnect the telephone lines from your cable modem, replace the telephone
cable, or contact a wiring technician for assistance.
