I have a Netgear WGR614 v4 router hooked up to Comcast cable modem
(Terayon TJ715). The internet light on my Netgear 614 and the Data
light on my Comcast modem are constantly blinking. No other light on
my Netgear is blinking so that tells me that no device is accessing
internet with my LAN.

Are there any tools compatible with the modem or Netgear router to see
what is going on? According to their website, Wallwatcher is not
compatible with this model.

Thanks in advance.

I am getting constant arp request from my Motorola SB 4220.
Makes the leds usless for watching for activity.

it's arp requests. depending on the size of the network (example a /1

would support over 65k hosts and the only way to know who's who is t
arp or map an ip address to the mac address

I see the same on my SB5100. I didn't have that situation on my Terayon
modem, which had separate send and receive lights, that flashed only on on
data to or from my network.

Hmmm. I didn't realize that FEMA had anything to do with cablemodems.

It could be that we don't know the regulatory definition of "emergency"
