Power LED of Orbi Satellite is blinking green

Dear friends,

 

I got an issue:

 

The Power LED of My Orbi Satellite is blinking green.
What does this mean?

 

In this situation I have also noticed that, the WiFi signal is weak.

(I suppose that, the signal from the Satellite is unstable or even stopped.)

Please help me to solve this issue.

 

Thank you.

  • The cause had been found.

     

    I plugged the adapter into an old power line.
    The voltage was unstable. That's why it was blinking green.

     

    Changing to an other power line solved the issue.

     

    Thanks.

  • Are you sure its not amber, don't have a blinking green power LED from the chart

     

    Router and satellite power button LEDs

    Solid green. Your Orbi router and satellite are powered on.
    Solid amber. Your Orbi router and satellite are rebooting.
    Pulsing amber. You must reset your Orbi router and satellite to factory default settings.
    Pulsing red. Your Orbi system might need attention. Contact support

      I am sure that, it is blinking in green.

       

      So, I cannot figure out what happens.
      (I read the document and cannot find "Blinking green" in the chart.)

       

      That is the reason, why I posted this message to ask, who may know about this.


      The firmware version is 1.5.0.12.

       

      The symptom is what I wrote:
