Descriptions of LEDs
The top panel contains the following LEDs:
Power and Status LEDs —The Power LED indicates that DC power is present and the Status LED blinks when
the unit is functioning normally.
Modem LEDs—Two modem LEDs indicate carrier detection and link status.
Signal LEDs—Three signal LEDs display the signal strength level of the wireless connection.
Ethernet LEDs—These LEDs are not on the top panel. See the section Ethernet LED Descriptions for
descriptions of these LEDs.
LED Indicators
POWER Indicates presence of DC power when lit.
STATUS The LED is a solid light when the device is booting up, saving the configuration, restarting,
or updating the firmware. When the Status LED begins to blink, the router is ready for use.
CD Carrier Detect. When lit, indicates data connection has been established.
LS Link Status
(older versions of LAT1 and LEU1 may behave differently)
Continuously Lit — Not registered
Slow Blink (-0.2Hz) — Registered or connected
SIGNAL Signal strength for cellular (RSSI range: 0 - 31)
ALL OFF — Unit is off, not registered on network, or extremely weak signal (0 <= RSSI <
6).
1 Bar “ON” — Very weak signal (7 <= RSSI <14).
1 Bar and 2 Bar “ON” — Weak signal (15 <= RSSI <23).
1 Bar, 2 Bar, and 3 Bar “ON” — Good signal (24 <= RSSI >= 31).
Ethernet LED Descriptions
Two Ethernet LEDs are physically on the RJ-45 connector(s). The table that follows describes these LEDs.
Ethernet Link Right LED on Ethernet connector. Blinks when there is transmit and receive
activity on the Ethernet link. It shows a steady light when there is a valid
Ethernet connection.
Ethernet Speed Left LED on Ethernet connector. Lit when the Ethernet is linked at 100 Mbps.
If it is not lit, the Ethernet is linked at 10 Mbps.
