    Zip tie cables. Upon reconnection loud popping noise. Modem not workin


    Was organizing and cleaning up a cable nightmare. Got them all zip tied together and plugged back in. A popping noise occurred and the modern will not turn on. The part that plugs into the wall was hot and very faint odd burnt odor. Is a new one required? Or just new cable? No idea.

    It's not likely the cables but the power supply (wall wart) to the modem that sounds and smells to have gone bad.
