The Front Panel

The Router’s LEDs are located on the front panel.

	Figure 3-2: The Router’s Front Panel
Power	Green. The Power LED lights up and will stay on while the Router is powered on. When the
	Router goes through its self-diagnostic mode during every boot-up, this LED will flash. When
	the diagnostic is complete, the LED will be solidly lit.
DMZ	Green. The DMZ LED indicates when the DMZ function is being used. This LED will remain lit
	as long as DMZ is enabled.
WLAN	Green. The WLAN LED lights up whenever there is a successful wireless connection. If the LED
	is flashing, the Router is actively sending or receiving data over the network.
1, 2, 3, 4	Green. These numbered LEDs, corresponding with the numbered ports on the Router’s back
	panel, serve two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Router is successfully connected
	to a device through that port. A flashing LED indicates network activity over that port.
Internet	Green. The Internet LED lights up when there is a connection made through the Internet port.
Pairing Button	White/Orange. The button lights up orange when no mobile phone is paired with the Router.
	The button lights up white when pairing has been successfully complete.
