Stop It

Good afternoon all.
I'm sure there is a logical explanation for this, but a little enlightenment is needed here. When I got home from work today, my internet died after about 5 minutes (5live stopped, a clear enough indication of problems). My modem rebooted itself (going by my logs) and the ready light was flashing.
At this point the internet wasn't working, so I turned the modem off for 5 minutes (A VM branded 255) and the internet came back, only the ready light was (and still is) flashing. Now of course it may be nothing (And speedtest.net shows my connection blazing along) but why would the ready light be lashing even when the internet is functioning normally? Is it a sign of a dying modem, worse or should I stop being paranoid.
Thanks in advance :)
