hey guys came home today for some reason the internet not working. Tried a reboot still no internet. Cable and Send light are solid green but PC flashes every so often. Unplugged the power / ethernet / and coax and just plugged power back in and cable and send light are solid green still. Seems wierd since no coax is connected? Is it possible the modem is blacklisted or dead somehow? I did try re-uploading a new set of certs and still same issue the modem just sits solid. I'm not sure if it needs a reflash but im hesitant since i don't have the original dump.
Any ideas?
And yes i did search the forum but nothing popped up "dpc2100 cable light solid green" and other variations of that.
Edit = fyi i can get to haxorware using ip

Mybe it is brick, you need to check to see if you can read and write to the modem using your JTAG.

Why did you load/flash the bootloader?
I would say it is bricked..

Reflash it. or, better yet, toss that worthless POS in the garbage and get another 5101 to play with. I know some of you guys love those things but I refuse to use them anymore. the two I own constantly brick themselves so I havent touched them in a year. Junk! My Netgears NEVER go down or need to be reflashed!

You will need a 2mb dump and flash that and start over

There is a great section over at SBH for those modems. the good thing about those things is the serial flash over ethernet...
