Your Streamyx modem internet LED shows red light after reset modem? It means you have missed one important step after restore the modem setting to its factory default setting. In this post, you will learn how to put in Streamyx PPPoE ID and password after reset modem to solve the issue.
I have received many emails regarding Streamyx modem showing red light after reset the modem. Most of them were referring to my tutorial on how to reset Streamyx modem. Once done with the steps, they are seeing the red light and it won’t turn blue or green.
This is because you didn’t put back the information which is needed by the modem to establish the connection to your Streamyx account. Since you have reset the modem, all this information is gone and you need to manually put it back or run a quick setup.
In order to allow the internet connection to be established, the most important step is you need to put in your Streamyx PPPoE ID and password. This is the information that the ISP provides when you register with them.
Note: This tutorial is for TM Streamyx Innacomm W3400V6 modem.
