Ethernet WAN Light

The Ethernet WAN light illuminates when the Router is connected to the Internet via Ethernet. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the port.

Coax WAN Light

The Ethernet LAN lights illuminate when the Router is connected to a local network via one or more of its Ethernet ports. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the port(s).
