Rdy light flashing often now a days

[kanagarajanc]

Now a days I loose my connection often. Most of the time Rdy light in cable modem just keep flashing while Sync light is steady green. Downstream light flashes occassionally as well when this happen..............

Any idea what this means? Sync is achieved as Sync LED is fine. What does Rdy light do?

I wonder whether adding up so many people by giving them at 10 pounds per month has started to see effect...............

Even their service status page says Intermittent service in Bishop Stortford area...........I had the same intermittent loss and I live in Bracknell, Berkshire.....

Is anybody else seeing such problem in the last 30 days ? (often)

Have you reported this to NTL Faults at all?

Have you checked your signal levels on the modem? Might be a localised issue that needs an engineer call out.

No I did not contact NTL..........It came up again on its own.........Its working fine now..............sometimes this happens all of a sudden......

I did see in NTL service status that they are up to some network maintenance.................

I'd call NTL if I were you. We had this happen every day for a week. An engineer arrived within 48 hours of me calling and fixed it for us.

I had this happen last month over a duration of several days. I reported it to NTL Faults, prompting a couple of engineer visits. The problem was a bit further down the road from my house, just a few house numbers along.
