Yes the lights will turn blue. As I mentioned in another reply, I changed the password back to the original after adding some devices back and it did the same thing. It only connects a limited number then nothing gets an IP and when assigning a static IP i can talk to the router but not internet.
Sounds like a possible interoperability issue between the MR and your ISP modem/ONT. May not be fully connecting properly during a power outage and everything comes back ON.
