Troubleshooting

c.

The WAN port LED is lit.

d.

The Wireless LED is lit.

If a port’s LED 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 LED is green. If the port is 10 Mbps, the 
LED is amber.

If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.

Power LED Is Not On

If the Power and other LEDs are off when your router is turned on:

Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to your router and that the power supply 
adapter is properly connected to a functioning power outlet. 

Check that you are using the 12 V DC power adapter supplied by NETGEAR for this product.

If the error persists, you have a hardware problem and should contact Technical Support.

Power LED Is Red

When the router is turned on, it performs a power-on self-test. If the Power LED turns red after a 
few seconds or at any other time during normal operation, there is a fault within the router. The 
Power LED also turns red when you press the default reset button, and blinks red 3 times when 
you release that button. However, in this case, the modem router is working normally.

If the Power LED turns red to indicate a router fault, turn the power off and on to see if the router 
recovers.

If the power LED is still red 1 minute after power up:

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

Clear the router’s configuration to factory defaults. This sets the router’s IP address to 
192.168.0.1. This procedure is explained in 

“Using the Reset Button” on page 6-9

.

If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact Technical Support.
