So I have a good old centurylink dsl modem that has two dsl lights. Dsl 1 is off while 2 is on and the internet light keeps flashing because it cannot make the connection to the provider. I can't find a single thing online about the difference between the two dsl lights and there is only one dsl port on the back of the modem. This is not my modem so I do not know if the first light was on before the internet stopped working but if anyone can clarify the point of said light and or what I can simply do to fix this situation I'd be delighted :) thanks guys

The only thing I can think is its a bonded modem. You might see only 1 DSL port but 1 DSL line is typically a pair and with RJ11 you can can add another pair, essentially two connections in one cable. I only have 1 customer like this. 

 

If you could grab the modem model that would help.
