Here is a table that will help you to understand the indicator on your gateway.
1.7 Security
In order to protect your computer systems from unauthorized access, NorthernTel strongly
recommends enabling WPA-TKIP encryption with a password on your wireless network, no
more than 30 characters in length. This security mode is compatible with Windows XP or
subsequent operation systems. If you do not plan on using the wireless network, then we recom-
mend disabling the wireless adapter on the router. Enabling the wireless adapter without
wireless security features turned on could potentially expose your systems to data
theft, viruses, spyware and other unauthorized access.
Configure the wireless network using this option. The wireless settings on the Gateway must
match those of any wireless clients on your network.
