The Front Panel
The Router’s LEDs are located on the front panel of the Router.
LEDs
System Green. The System LED lights up when the Router is powered on. If the LED is flashing,
the Router is running a diagnostic test.
Diag Orange. The Diag LED lights up when the system is not ready. The LED goes off when
the system is ready.
Internet Green. The Internet LED lights up when the Router is connected to your cable or DSL
modem.
DMZ/Internet Green. The DMZ/Internet LED lights up when the Router is connected to your cable or
DSL modem when used as an Internet port, and it lights up when the Router is
connected to the hub, switch, or public server when used as a DMZ port.
DMZ Mode Green. The DMZ Mode LED lights up when the Router is using DMZ mode.
1-4 (LAN) Green. The LAN LED serves two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Router is
connected to a device through the corresponding port (1, 2, 3, or 4). If the LED is
flashing, the Router is actively sending or receiving data over that port.
