Thread: am i having a faulty modem???

hello guys

Thanks for reading this .
I had been using my bsnl ut300r2u from 2007 with port forwarding successfully done and it was fine besides some usuall slow connection bsnl problems



But thats ok since i am using 500c plan. But i was always able to online

But yesterday morning when i turned on my modem i noticed something crazy going on

Let me explain u this.
As soon as the modem is turned on power and ethernet light will flash and after that they will turn off and the other 3 namely dsl ,internet,usb flashes like both sets of light flashes like a disco light.

So now today as i turned on the modem again only dsl,internet and usb are glowing and stable (although i am using ethernet post for internet)no response from the power and ethernet



What i did

*Checked all connections and the the land line is working fine

*used my phone to go online in my computer it workers


Replaced adsl splitter still the same thing


Is this the end of my modem?
Please help me

ut300r2u from 2007

1.
Can you access the modem menu pages ?
( on "dialer" mode or PPP/PPPoE mode )
2.
Made complaint to BSNL CC ( Broadband section )?
3.
Check my signature link/s for modem details..
UTSTAR WA3002-G4 quick reference etc.
4.
Copy/Paste ipconfig /all

this disco light syndrome was affecting my huwaei modem also .... i just changed the lan cable and it worked fine after that..........

1. replace the cables(lan cable,line cable) and the adapter.
2. c if it works.if it doesn't replace the modem probably with a frnd and check.

Lamp Indications:



Power: This LED will glow as soon as you switch on the modem.



DSL : This LED will start glowing permanently when the connectivity between the Exchange equipment/switch and your modem is proper/established.



Internet: This internet Activity lamp will blink whenever there is a data flow between internet and the modem.



Ethernet: This LED will glow as soon as you switch on the computer if the computer is connected with modem through LAN/NIC/Ethernet card. Or



USB: This LED will glow as soon as you switch on the computer if the computer is connected with modem through USB port of your computer..

i have checked all my connection of my mnodem

the fact is the three lights namely - dsl , ethernet and usb are glowing even without any dsl or ethernet cable connected to the modem

>>is there any way so that i can reset the modem.. thus the modem goes bad this way?

>>i tried the reset button in the back of the modem.. but it is not working

Your reply does not add any new information.
Confirm you can access modem menu pages. etc.

5. Post Screen shot of Diagnostics page if modem settings accessed.

Try item wise reply to my post at No 2..

yes thank u
i also checked it

>> i cannot access the modem menu page..

>>and the "network and sharing center says" local area cable unpluged

does faulty adapter cause this problem?

Reset the modem and check. There will be a small hole at the bottom side of your modem. Use a refill, press hold for say 30 seconds while the modem is ON.

The best way is to get a friend's modem/adapter and check.

your query is correct and if adopter is faulty , it gives the message that LAN IS UNPLUGGED.
