The Router’s LEDs, which inform you about network activities, are located on the front panel.
Power Green. The Power LED lights up when the Router is powered on. If the LED is flashing, the
Router is booting up, running a system self-test, or upgrading its firmware.
Ethernet 1-3 Green. The Ethernet LED serves two purposes. If the LED is solidly lit, the Router is
connected to a device through the corresponding port (Ethernet 1, 2, or 3). If the LED is
flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over that port.
Phone 1-2 Green. The Phone LED is solidly lit when a telephone or fax machine has a registered
connection to Vonage through the corresponding port (Phone 1 or Phone 2). (The connection
is registered if your Vonage service account is active.) This LED is not lit when there is no
registered connection. It flashes when the phone is being used or an incoming call has been
detected.
Internet Green. The Internet LED lights up when the Router is connected to your cable or DSL
modem. If the LED is flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over the Internet port.
