My Dad always says "dont touch it if it aint broken"

Just proves to all those none believers that most modems will work on the network.

Re: Ethernet constantly flashing
I use ethernet, my light stays on constant, it doesn't flash.
I'd just make sure your ethernet cable is secure, and do a speed test to make sure you're receiving all data you should be.
