The power light wasn't blinking non-stop anymore. They sent me a "refurb" modem with the older. Wait 2 minutes for the DSL and Internet lights on the modem to turn green before trying to access the internet. But it still wasn't connecting to dsl. This step will take about 2 minutes. Pretty strange problem, but I thought that I might try to get the modem to go into boot loader mode and reload the firmware.

How did you load the firmware from the boot loader when the modem won't respond to any kind of IP activity? Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. At what point do we give Qwest the authority to update firmware on modems we own?
Pretty strange problem, but I thought that I might try to get the modem to go into boot loader mode and reload the firmware. Sunday morning, my actkontec was unresponsive -- the power light was blinking green and I couldn't hit the modem's admin IP address. Ok, now open a web browser and type in your gateway IP.

I surely couldn't flash the firmware in 15 seconds, nor would it save any changes I made to enable telnet, etc. Talked to a few of my neighbors, and they also experienced down-time that morning, but they had since recovered and were back online.

A very strange problem to say the least. It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Hey the good news is that they are finally getting around to offering QoS in this version.
