Internet or Ethernet Port LEDs Are Off

If either the Ethernet port LEDs or the Internet LED does not light when the Ethernet
connection is made, check the following:
•
Make sure that the Ethernet cable connections are secure at the router and at the modem
or computer.
•
Make sure that power is turned on to the connected modem or computer.
•
Be sure that you are using the correct cable:
When connecting the router's Internet port to a cable or DSL modem, use the cable that
was supplied with the cable or DSL modem. This cable could be a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable or an Ethernet crossover cable.

Wireless LED Is Off

If the Wireless LED stays off, check to see if the Wireless On/Off button on the router has
been pressed. This button turns the wireless radios in the router on and off. The Wireless
LED is lit when the wireless radio is turned on.

The Push 'N' Connect (WPS) Button Blinks Amber

If after using the WPS function the button blinks amber, check the following:
•
Make sure that you are using the button and not the router's built-in registrar.
•
Check that PIN verification has succeeded for the wireless device you are adding to the
wireless network.
•
Make sure you have not pressed the WPS button on the side of the router after disabling
the WPS feature (you logged in to the router and disabled this previously).
•
Check that the router is not in the temporary AP setup locked state (if you are using the
wireless repeater function).
