3. After approximately 20 seconds, verify that:
a. The color of the power light changes to green.
b. The LAN port lights are lit for any local ports that are connected.
If a port’s light is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN port is
connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port’s light is green. If the port is 10
Mbps, the light will be amber.
c. The Internet port is connected and its light is lit.
4. If you have enabled WPS security, verify that the push-button stops blinking and changes to
green (otherwise the push-button light should be off).
If the correct behavior does not occur, see the appropriate following section.
The Power light is not on.
If the Power and other lights are off when your router is turned on:
Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to your router and that the power adapter
is properly connected to a functioning power outlet.
Check that you are using the power adapter supplied by NETGEAR for this product.
If the error persists, you have a hardware problem and should contact Technical Support.
The Power light blinks green slowly and continuously.
The router firmware is corrupted.
For help restoring your firmware, contact Technical Support.
The Power light stays amber.
When the router is turned on, the Power light turns amber for about 20 seconds and then turns
green. If the light does not turn green, the router has a problem.
If the Power light is still amber 1 minute after turning on power to the router:
1. Turn the power off and back on to see if the router recovers.
2. Clear the router’s configuration to factory defaults. This will set the router’s IP address to
www.routerlogin.net. This procedure is explained in “Restoring the Default Configuration and
Password” on page 7-11.
If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact Technical Support.
