PowerGreen. The Power LED lights up when the Router is powered on. If the LED is flashing, the

Router is booting up, running a system self-test, or upgrading its firmware.

WLANGreen. The WLAN LED lights up when there is an active wireless connection. If the LED is flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over the wireless network.

Ethernet 1-3 Green. The Ethernet LED serves two purposes. If the LED is solidly lit, the Router is connected to a device through the corresponding port (Ethernet 1, 2, or 3). If the LED is flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over that port.

Phone 1-2 Green. The Phone LED is solidly lit when a telephone or fax machine has a registered connection to Internet phone service through the corresponding port (Phone 1 or 2). (The connection is registered if your Internet phone service account is active.) Otherwise, the LED does not light up. It flashes when the phone is being used or an incoming call has been detected.
