Rapidly blinking WPS LED

If the LED remains in this state for longer than two minutes, go to the unit’s back panel 

and push the WPS button. The LED may continue flashing in a different pattern, rapidly 

blinking for 1 second and then resting briefly before blinking again. If this occurs, wait 

one to two minutes and then press the WPS button again.

Cannot configure a VAP unit as an 

Access Point

If you cannot establish one of your units as an Access Point, it may indicate that your 

router is not connected to your service provider’s network. (The

 operational mode LED 

lights green on 

VAP units dedicated as Access Points and amber on VAP units dedicated 

as Clients; see pp. 9–11 for more details.) If you experience this problem, contact your 

service provider for assistance.
