LED's

Post by antighsiothail »

Odd, I have connected a smart tv to my router, a 7800nxl, although everything works fine the led on the front of the router stays orange. All the other ports with devices connected go green. Just tried swapping the cables around but makes no difference. It's not a problem as the tv works fine, accesses the internet no problem, just find it strange.

That's because most PVRs/Blu-ray players/Smart TV's only come with 100Mb/s Fast Ethernet ports, not Gigabit ports hence the orange LED. Plug in a device with a Gigabit Ethernet port and you'll see a green LED.

Ah thank you so much, as I said it wasn't a problem just puzzling me. :D :D
