POWER

Blue/Red. The POWER LED lights up blue when the Router is powered on. If the blue LED is

 

flashing, the Router is booting up or upgrading its firmware. If the LED lights up red, then

 

disconnect the power, and wait five seconds. Then reconnect the power.

ETHERNET 1-4

Blue. The ETHERNET LED lights up when there is an active connection through the

 

corresponding port. If the LED is flashing, then there is traffic moving through that port.

PHONE 1-2

Blue. The PHONE LED is solidly lit when a telephone or fax machine has an active or

 

registered connection to your Internet phone service provider through the corresponding

 

port (PHONE 1 or 2). It flashes when the phone is being used or is off the hook.

INTERNET

Blue. The INTERNET LED lights up when the Router is connected to your cable or DSL

 

modem. If the LED is flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over the Internet port.
