Prior to yesterday, the lights would only blink in a seemingly random pattern as data was sent or received. I shut down modem and router for over two minutes, rebooted, updated firmware but it's still doing it. I could not find a solution onliine for anyone with a similar issue, just responses saying that the lights blink when sending or receiving data. When I look at my internet connection graph in the Task Manager, even when the send receive are both zero, the lights blink in the same pattern. Can someone tell me what is going on?
