So I currently ordered HSI from verizon and the modem they sent me wont connect to the internet, all the lights are green, blinking, etc...except for the internet light which is either not lit at all or sometimes stays full red. I've kept doing dianostics on it and all my PC tells me to do is turn it off and on. Sadly it doesnt do anything...Now after like 2 days of fiddling with it I grabbed my parents old verizone modem from a year or two ago and plugged it in and it works like it should and I have internet and everything, but if I switch back to the original one they sent me it wont work :(. Like I said I'm using the older one, but my internet connection doesnt seem to be anywhere near 7mb...My first day i noticed it was down at 1.4-1.9mb which didnt bother me really, but now it won't go any higher then 150 kbs, which kinda does bother me. Any suggestions would be nice
The modem they originally sent me to use: GT704-WGB
The old modem I'm using is: F90-610015-06
If thats correct 😮

Either modem will work for the service, honestly. Keep one around as a spare and use the one you wish to use as your modem. It sounds like to me there may be a wiring issue if you're having issues even getting 7.1Mbps or for that matter, getting the ActionTec to obtain sync (The ActionTec's DSL Light is solid, correct?). If the issue isn't with getting the modem synced it might be a case of having a bad PPPoE login. Either way, give us information on which lights are doing what on the ActionTec.
From the working modem, go to http://192.168.1.1. Choose System Monitoring, Advanced Monitors and then choose Transceiver Statistics. Post up those statistics for me to see. If you are asked for a login, try the following:
admin/password
admin/password1
admin/admin
admin/admin1

It looks like you're clocking in a 10Mbps/1Mbps connection. The speeds should be coming in much higher now that I've seen those statistics. Can you provide a Speedtest for us to see? In addition, can you perform a Line Quality Test over at DSLReports.com and provide the link to the completed test? The Line Quality test will require an account, as an FYI.
