TheRouter's LEDs, where information about network activity is displayed, are located on the front panel.
Power Green. The Power LED lights up and will stay on while the Router is powered on. When the
Router goes through its self-diagnosis mode during every boot-up, this LED will flicker,
stopping upon successful completion of the diagnosis.
DMZ Green. The DMZ LED indicates when the DMZ function is being utilized. This LED will remain
on as long as DMZ is enabled.
WLAN Green. The WLAN LED lights whenever there is a successful wireless connection. If the LED is
flickering, the Broadband Router is actively sending or receiving data over the network.

Router’s back panel, serve two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Broadband Router
is successfully connected to a device through that port. A flickering LED indicates network
activity over that port.
