The 3-Port Router’s Front Panel LEDs

The LAN Indicators

 

Power

Green. The Power LED lights up green when the

 

Router is powered on.

Link/Act

Green. The Link/Act LED serves two purposes. If

 

the LED is continuously lit up, the Router is suc-

 

cessfully connected to a device through the corre-

 

sponding RJ-45 port (1, 2, or 3). If the LED flick-

 

ers, then that port is sending or receiving data to

 

and from the network.

Full/Col

Green. The Full/Col LED also serves two purpos-

 

es. If this LED is continuously lit up, the connec-

 

tion made through the corresponding port is suc-

 

cessfully running in Full Duplex mode. If the

 

LED is flickering, the connection is experiencing

 

collisions. Infrequent collisions are normal.

 

If this LED flickers too often, there may be a

 

problem with your connection. See the

 

Troubleshooting section if you have problems.

100

Orange. The 100 LED lights up when a

 

successful 100Mbps connection is made

 

through the corresponding port. If this

 

LED does not light up, then your connec-

 

tion speed is 10 Mbps.

USB

The USB LED lights up when the USB

 

port is successfully connected to a PC,

 

USB hub, or other USB device.

The WAN Indicators

Link

Green. The Link LED lights up when a successful connec-

 

tion is made between the Router and your broadband device

 

or network.

Act

Green. The Act LED flickers when the Router is sending or

 

receiving data over the broadband WAN port.

Diag

Orange. The Diag LED lights up when the Router goes

 

through its self-diagnostic test during boot-up. It will turn

 

off upon successful completion of the diagnosis. This LED

 

will also light up when you make changes in the Utility and

 

click Apply to save them.

If this LED stays on for an abnormally long period of time, see the Troubleshooting section.
