You are undoubtedly used to the rather strong reputation that Spectrum has earned for providing service that is dependable and reliable. But here’s the thing. Your modem will occasionally go a tiny bit “crazy” and create connection issues. And that may really ruin your day!
Luckily, we know a thing or two about how to fix Spectrum Modem’s blinking white or blue. Follow the miniguide below with step-by-step instructions and solve your issue.
Spectrum Modem Online Light Blinking White or Blue: How to Fix It?
For starters, the following explanation applies whenever your modem displays a combination of color codes:
– Blue (Solid) indicates that your modem is functioning as it was designed to.
– If you see alternating flashes of blue and white, it means that your modem is still trying to establish a connection to the internet.
– No light means that access to the network is either restricted or unavailable.
– White (Solid) means that your modem is functioning exactly as it was designed to, which is to say, it is working on a DOC SIS 3.0 Bonded State.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way let’s have a look at the possible causes of the blinking issue you’re having with your Spectrum Modem.
If your modem begins to flash white and blue lights, this indicates that it is unable to successfully establish a connection to the network. And now for the favorable part. It’s possible that this is only a temporary situation (your modem might be powering up for the first time, charging up after a power interruption, etc.). Still, it could also be a permanent situation.
