settings.

• 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:

a. Turn the power off and back on to see if the router recovers.

b. Clear the router’s configuration to factory defaults. This will set the router’s IP address to

192.168.1.1. This procedure is explained in “Restoring the Default Password and

Configuration Settings” on page 36.

If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.

about 20 seconds and then turns green. If the light does not turn green, the router has a

Configuration Settings” on page 36.
