Unplug the wireless gateway from the power outlet or power strip. Plug in a lamp or other known working device into the outlet that the wireless gateway is plugged into. If the lamp/device doesn't work this might indicate that your outlet or power strip is having an issue. Ensure power strip is on. Plug your wireless gateway or set to box directly into power outlet.

If the lamp/device works this may indicate an issue with your wireless gateway. Please contact Technical Support at 513-565-9890 for further assistance.

I need help with my Cincinnati Bell wireless gateway, where can I find information?

Electronics are not built to constantly be running at all times, and power cycling (a fancy way of saying unplugging the power cord) helps with most issues.  Like other electronics, one of the biggest reasons you may benefit from rebooting your modem is because when you leave your modem on for too long, it will tend to stop performing at its best after a while.  Rebooting youwireless gateway can fix Internet connection problems, improve slow moving connections and resolve wireless issues, which also affect your TV service that is being transmitted over an internet connection.  By unplugging the power cord from the back of the modem you are giving it the breather it needs. 

Another reason is that when your wireless gateway is on all day, every day, it is slowly desynchronizing from the Internet Service Provider (ISP). This desynchronization causes the packets you are sending and receiving to become corrupt, requiring them to be resent, and thus, lowering your speed.

Try unplugging your wireless gateway on a monthly basis to stay proactive. This will not cause any harm to your electronics as it is simply a way of rebooting the system. If your problems continue please call your local NU-Telecom office and a representative will lend a helping hand.
