2wire router the broadband light has suddenly turned orange (not flashing). I have turned off and on again, but the broadband light flashes for 15 secnds and then stays on constantly. I can connect to the router by cable and wirelessly, but can not access the internet. any thoughts?

Orange means it's updating. Power, broadband, and service should be solid green. The others are normal when they flash.

the problem is with century link.. There server could be down because of some maintenance.. Wait for a while and it will start working as soon as the server is up..

log into the modem and unchk the box for wireless "b" enhancement. should stop disconnecting wirelessly also check for interference.

you have to open internet explorer and type 192.168.1.254. then go to broadband link at the top of the page. hit the advanced settings then you have to re enter all you information like your username, password etc... i hope the helps you if i doesnt let me know.

yellow light on broadband keps on flashing , and my phone has a clicking noise

I had a similar problem when the power went out and the router got hooped, the solution was to UNPLUG the power CONVERTER from the wall and wait ten minutes before plugging it in again.

If your Not getting a SOLID dsl light this means that your user sessions are not being varified via the Radius servers at the ISP. Before giving up all hope and just abandoning the poor thing Just make sure that the Username and Password you are using for the Sync at the ISP are correct. Even ask the ISP for a Test account If this still doesnt work Try another router Say your friends one in your House if that Does work then it is Most proberly a Router Fault if it doesnt Then get on to your ISP and give them an Ear full ok.

:)

Ok, thank you for clarifying.

It seems like the settings on the 1707 have been reset.
On this modem, while connected, type "homeportal.2wire.net" without the quotes.

• click on "Broadband Link"

• click on "Advanced Settings"
  

*note:you may have to enter your password. if you never set one and it asks you for one, click on "I still can’t remember the password". Follow the instructions.

• On the "advanced Settings" page, make sure your settings are correct. The user name is the same you use to check your AT&T Yahoo Email. and also the password.
• If you have forgotten your settings, you can call AT&T to retreive your settings at 1-877-722-3755. Have your AT&T Bill and the debit/credit card (used to activate your service) on hand.

They should be able to give you your info.
If not, comment back.

hi!
first of all, let's try to make the broadband link light turn green. open any browser, go the modem's UI by typing gateway.2wire.net or homeportal/setup on the address bar, follow the onscreen instructions on running the system setup wizard. it should make the broadband link green now. for wireless connection, click on the airport icon, and select on the SSID or network name in the drop down menu. if ssid is not on the drop down menu, click on other. type the SSID in the network name field and wireless security is none. (SSID is the last 3 nos. of the SN)
