This page contains information the different types of LEDs and their behaviour on a {{{name}}} router.
Power LED
The power LED is located on the bottom left corner of the front panel, just under the power connector.
[[File:{{{file_power}}}]]
It indicates whether the router is powered on or not
State | Description |
---|---|
LED turned on | Router is powered on |
LED turned off | Router is not powered on |
WiFi band LEDs
The WiFi band LEDs are located at the bottom of the front panel of the router, to the left of the Ethernet ports.
[[File:{{{file_wifi}}}]]
They display whether a WiFi Access Point (AP) is active on a specific band.
State | Description |
---|---|
2.4 LED turned on | At least one 2.4 GHz Access Point is running |
2.4 LED turned off | No 2.4 GHz Access Points are running |
5 LED turned on | At least one 5 GHz Access Point is running |
5 LED turned off | No 5 GHz Access Points are running |
WAN type LEDs
The WAN type LEDs are located at the top-right of the front panel.
[[File:{{{file_wan}}}]]
They indicate which type of Internet connection is currently active.
State | Description |
---|---|
SIM1 LED on | A mobile data connection on SIM1 is active. |
SIM1 LED off | A mobile data connection on SIM1 is inactive. |
SIM2 LED on | A mobile data connection on SIM2 is active. |
SIM2 LED off | A mobile data connection on SIM2 is inactive. |
WiFi LED on | A WiFi data connection (WiFi WAN) is active. |
WiFi LED off | A WiFi data connection (WiFi WAN) is inactive. |
ETH LED on | An Ethernet data connection (wired WAN) is active. |
ETH LED off | An Ethernet data connection (wired WAN) is inactive. |
Ethernet port LEDs
There are two LEDs located at the top of each Ethernet port.
[[File:{{{file_ethernet}}}]]
They provide information on the current states of the Ethernet ports. Each port has two LEDs:
- Orange - 10/100 Mbps connection
- Green - 1000 Mbps connection
Below is an explanation on the behaviours of green and orange LEDs.
State | Description |
---|---|
LED on | A data connection on the port is operational (cable plugged in, end device visible, no data is being transferred) |
LED off | No data connection on the port is operational (no cable, bad cable or end device not visible for some other reason (such as damaged network card)) |
LED blinking | Connection established and data is being transferred over this port |
Mobile network type LEDs
The mobile network type LEDs are located just above the first SIM holder.
[[File:{{{file_net_type}}}]]
They display which type of Internet connection is currently active.
Action | Description |
---|---|
Mobile signal strength indication LEDs
The mobile signal strength indication LEDs are located just above the second SIM holder.
[[File:{{{file_signal}}}]]
The number of lit up LEDs represents a different mobile signal strength value in dBm for the currently active SIM card.
No. of lit up LEDS | Signal strength |
---|---|
0 | ≤ -111 dBm |
1 | -110 dBm to -97 dBm |
2 | -96 dBm to -82 dBm |
3 | -81 dBm -67 dBm |
4 | -66 dBm to -52 dBm |
5 | ≥ -51 dBm |
