No internet after turning power off
I was replacing some light switches so I had to turn the power off to a few rooms. My router is in one of those rooms, so the router didn't have power for about 45 minutes. When I turned the power back on, the router light was solid yellow.
This has happened before after losing/shutting off power. Normally what fixes it is unplugging the ONT and router for a minute then plugging them back in. That didn't work this time.
I called Verizon. Nothing they had me do worked so they are sending out a tech in 2 days. Is there anything else I can try? Id much rather not go 2 days without as I work from home.
The rep had me plug my old Xbox directly into the ONT but I didn't have a TV in my basement. He said it shouldnt matter as he would be able to see if the ONT was providing internet to it. Im not sure that was a great test as I wasnt able to see if the Xbox was fully booted up.
Edit: found a small TV to hook up the Xbox to. Plugged ethernet from Xbox directly to ONT. No internet. Do these go back simply from turning the power off?
