A:Answer The first 4 lights from the Left edge toward center, and the first 2 lights from the Right edge toward center, should be lit up colored White with a successful connection. Two of the lights, indicating the transmission speeds, (the 3rd and 4th from the Left), flicker as a result of the ongoing speed activities. Means it is working and traffic is moving. The lights labeled with the numbers 1 through 4, correspond to additional equipment you attach that needs an online connection, just like always. This is about as much as I know. I am not a technician, but it's what little I have learned over the years. I really like this unit, glad you have one, too. I DID need to call Tech Support to have it installed, and they were really nice and efficient throughout the whole process. Netgear Tech Support's phone number is: 1-888-638-4327
