There are a number of possible causes. First, make sure that the telephone is securely plugged into the jack, and that both ends of the telephone wire from the cable modem to the telephone jack are plugged in properly. Then make sure that the coaxial cable is securely plugged into the cable modem and that the cable modem is plugged in and receiving power. The next step is to unplug the electrical power from the cable modem for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in. If none of those steps resolves the problem, then you will have to call Comcast from another phone for further instructions.

How can you get an Ethernet wall jack to become live?
It needs to be run from the wall to a network switch. If all the wall jacks are to a switch, any computers plugged into the wall jacks will be able to network with each other locally. (for such things as sharing folders and printers) If the Switch is then plugged into a working modem, the modem gives the switch access to the net. So for a wall jack to be "live" it needs to have cable run to the switch, and the switch will need to be plugged into a standard power outlet. to summarize: computer---->wall jack----->switch----->modem----->internet ____________________________________________________________________ you can also run it like so: computer---->wall jack----->modem----->internet (the switch simply splits the 1 modem connection into many connections. This allows more than 1 computer to connect to the net from that 1 modem)
Can a modem be plugged into a ups?
Yes it can. In fact, if your computer and modem are both plugged into an UPS you may be able to continue surfing during a power outage. It will also protect the modem from power line surges and brown outs that could otherwise be destructive. Many UPS have jacks to plug the telephone line in to protect against surges on the telephone line (phone modems) but typically don't have protection for surges on cable.
