LAN port LED and Factory Default Settings

I see my LAN port LED showing amber color. What does that mean?
If your device connected to LAN port is fast Ethernet, 10/100Mbps, you will see green color on LAM port LED.

How to restore the factory default settings?

  • Use a sharp object such as a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the Restore Factory Settings button, located on the bottom of the router, for over 5 seconds until the Power LED turns to blinking amber.
  • Release the Restore Factory Settings button, and wait for the router to reboot. The factory default settings are restored so that you can access the router from your Web browser using the factory defaults.
