XR1000 Turn off all LEDs except Power LED is selected but some other LEDs stay on
firmNighthawk XR1000
In Settings -> Advanced Settings -> LED Control Settings, I have checked Turn off all LEDs except Power LED
It will sometimes turn all the LEDs off except for the power LED but after a some hours of usagesome of the other LEDs will light up. Right now, the USB3 LED is lit. I do have a USB drive attached and it was attached before checking to turn off the LEDs. Some other times the 5GHz LED will light up.
If I uncheck and recheck the option right now, the USB3 light will remain on. Tomorrow morning, the 5GHz light may or may not be on.
I am currently running firmware 1.0.0.44_1.0.33 but have also tried it with 1.0.0.58_1.0.44. It is no diffrerent on either.

Review the user manual for this feature to see what LEDs should be turned OFF when used.
Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the NightHawk Gaming Router products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with NH gaming router products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Thank you.The breadcrumbs at the top of my post show that I posted in the Nighthawk Pro Gaming Routers community:

- lincssausage probably was posted in another Nighthawk sub forum and was moved here by a moderator. Do keep us posted on the outcome of the ticket!
- This is something you would need to make a ticket directly with Netgear for, as there is only one option turn off/on there isn't anything in the way of troubleshooting that can be done so would just be a bug for NG to fix.
It definitely sounds like a bug. I will raise a ticket with Netgear.
