Blinking Red Broadband Light and No Service. What is wrong?
I connected the line into the telephone jack and I have everything plugged in, but the broadband light is blinking red. Service was supposed to be turned on today at 8:00 pm and I still get no internet connection. I'm also in a apartment. What is the problem?

Broadband light keeps blinking red
I don't have dsl
Do I still need to hookup the green data cable ??
I currently have it hooked up to 1 of the 3 different wall jacks I have in this house ..
Waited 15 mins I'm not getting any connection
I've rebooted the box 3 times
Tried resetting also
Maybe I only have 1 att wall jack???

Your internet service is an absolute joke. Have your slow service for a week then suddenly I get that red blinking broadband light. So I call and get a technician to come out and fix it. He switches the router for a better one, one that are not supposed to go to internet only customers. So yeah, that worked great for 10 hours. Now the new router is blinking red. I am getting really tired of paying for service that I do not even get. All I can say is shame on you at&t. I just moved to a new apartment that only goes through AT&T for service, so I cannot wait to move. I had cox before and it was cheaper, not by a lot mind you but it was cheaper. The quality of service was 100 times better. I could download games and such at about 50 Mbps. With your terrible service I cannot get over a single Mbps. What is wrong with that. Plus you make me buy your piece of garbage router when I have one that would work much better already. All in all. I hate the service and will never use AT&T for anything again. My internet and cell phone plan will go to a company that gives a care.

So true, I am constantly having issues with their services, by the time a tech can come out I would not have had internet or cable service for 24 hours. Yet, you better pay that bill on time, I wonder does AT&T ever take money off of a bill for customers who services don't work correctly.

They don't care. It's all about the money. You have to spend money to make money.
