If the cable is fine, then you should call the service provider (and tell them about the status of the light) because there's nothing you can do on your own at that point to fix the problem. If it's off, red or flashing constantly (it's OK if it flashes for a short time, like less than a minute, after a reboot) then check to make sure the service cable, either the phone line (DSL) or the coaxial cable (cable internet) is securely plugged in and not broken. Under normal conditions, this light should be solid green (or amber). From simple cable modems to the addition of telephony, wireless and IoT interfaces, to a. This light is often labeled as Online, Cable, Sync or Signal and usually has a symbol similar to the internet light on a router as mentioned above. Technicolor has led the cable broadband industry since 1999, with the first-to-market CableLabs DOCSIS 1.0 certified modem, followed by DOCSIS 1.1, Euro-DOCSIS 2.0 certified gateway, the first DOCSIS 3.0 and the first DOCSIS 3.1 certified modem in 2016. Similar to routers, most modems (both Cable and DSL) have a light dedicated to the broadband connection.
If the cable is all fine, then it's time to check your cable or DSL modem's light. But if it's off or red in color, then it's time to check to make sure that the network cable that connects the router's WAN (Internet) port (often on the back of the router) to the modem is plugged in securely and not broken in any way. In most cases, this light needs to be lit solid (white, green or amber) or flashing to show that internet activity is happening. This light is often labeled as Internet, WAN, or marked with a symbol of globe or a satellite flying around a globe. Most routers have a single light dedicated solely to the status of the internet connection. When you lose the internet, here's how you can use some of them to troubleshoot the problem. What isn't obvious is what the hell the purpose of these lights is. Then reconnect the coaxial cable back to the unit. Then push the reset button on the back of the unit, hold down for 30 seconds.
Actually, I was being facetious saying "you may have noticed" because these lights are totally obvious. To reset the cable modem router, you must first disconnect the coaxial cable from the unit. Used to have the printer hooked up via an Amped wireless, but that started having problems so Mediacom (Internet/cable provider) replaced the modem with a Hitron 2559 that has a built-in wireless router. You may have noticed that your router and modem have, like, a ton of constantly blinking lights on them. Have rebooted the modem/router and printer, still just get blue light flashing on the wireless indicator on the printer. The WAN (Internet) light on a router shows the status of the Internet connection.
