Front panel LEDs
The satellite modem has five LEDs on the front panel, as shown in Figure 48: Front panel LEDs on the HN9000 modem
on page 74. By their appearance—on, off, or blinking—the LEDs indicate the modem's operating status.

Table 11: Front panel LED indications on page 74 explains what the modem status is when the LEDs are on, off, or
