Description

 

 

 

 

WPS

Pressing the WPS button lets you use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to join the

 

 

 

network (see Wi-Fi Protected Setup Method on page 21). The WPS LED has the

 

 

 

 

 

 

following behavior:

 

 

 

• Solid green. Wireless security has been enabled.

 

 

 

• Blinking green. A WPS-capable device is connecting to the device.

•Off. WPS is not enabled.

WiFi

Pressing the WiFi button turns the wireless radio in the modem router on or off. By

 

default, WiFi is on. The WiFi LED has the following behavior:

 

 

• Solid green. There is WiFi connectivity.

 

• Blinking green. Data is being transmitted or received over the WiFi link.

 

• Off. There is no WiFi connectivity. You can still plug an Ethernet cable into one of

 

the LAN ports to get wired connectivity. For more information about the use of this

 

button, see Advanced Wireless Settings on page 91.

Internet

• Solid green. You have an Internet connection. If the connection timed out based

 

on the setting you entered on the Internet Setup screen, but the DSL connection

 

is still present, the LED stays green. If the Internet connection is dropped for any

 

other reason, the LED turns off.

•Solid red. The Internet (IP) connection failed. For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshoot the Internet Connection on page 136.

•Blinking green. Data is being transmitted over the DSL port.

•Off. No Internet connection is detected or the device is in bridge mode (an external device handles the ISP connection).

DSL

• Solid green. You have a DSL connection. In technical terms, the DSL port is

 

synchronized with an ISP’s network-access device.

•Blinking green. The modem router is negotiating the best possible speed on the

DSL line.

•Solid red. The DSL connection is not established.

•Off. The unit is off or there is no DSL link established.

LAN (1–4)

• Solid green. The LAN port has detected an Ethernet link with a device.

• Off. No link is detected on this port.

Power

•

Solid green. Power is supplied to the modem router.

 

•

Solid red. The modem router performs a power-on self-test (POST) when it

 

 

starts. After about one minute, the Power LED turns solid green. If the Power LED

 

 

remains red or lights red at any other time, a device malfunction has occurred.

•Off. Power is not supplied to the modem router.

•Blinking red. When the Restore Factory Settings button is pressed for seven seconds (pressing it briefly only resets the unit), the Power LED blinks red three times and then turns green as the modem router resets to the factory defaults.
