Purple light over night

I have RBR 750 which was working fine. Went to bed and got up to a purple light. I have tried to reboot and reinstall bit nothing helps. Anybody know what's going on?

  • PINK is an indicator of the RBR not getting any good data signal from the ISP modem or ONT.

    Something to check with the modem/ONT and your ISP services. 

     

    Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
    Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
    Turn off and unplug modem.
    Turn off router and computers.
    Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on computers and rest of network.

     

    What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
    Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.
