It takes at least 10 minutes for the cable modem to come online on the network. During
this time, the LED behavior is as follows:
•
The Downstream LED lights amber when one downstream channel is locked.
•
The Downstream LED lights green when more than one downstream channel is
locked.
•
The Upstream LED lights amber when one upstream channel is locked.
•
The Upstream LED lights green when more than one upstream channel is locked.
•
After the cable modem registers with your cable Internet provider, the Internet LED
lights green.
Even though an Internet connection is established, Internet service is available only after you
set it up with your cable Internet provider.
