netgear ax1800

Netgear ax1800 power light blinks. What is the problem? Can anyone help with this?

  • AX1800 is a wifi speed. What NG product and model# are you referring too? 

    Review the user manual for LED behavior and indications.

        That's one question answered.

         

        How about all the other details people have asked about?

         

        You can help people to help you by providing the information suggested in this forum's header:

        They are there for a good reason.

    When you turn a device on, it goes through a self test cycle.

     

    As a rough guide:

     

    • It blinks as it does some tests
    • After a bit it then turns to a solid colour, usually white or green
    • Wrong colour (red rather than white/green), or blinking = trouble

      Netgear 36.  Blinks on start up but it still blinks after boot is complete.

        Netgear 36 isn't a model #. Do you have a RAX### or EAX### something?
