Rax200 internet led - red

After power outtage (i had to install a lamp) my internet does not work.
On the router the internet led is red and this color is not mentioned in the manual.
I waited 2 days and it was still red. Rebooted and it is still red.
  • what modem/gateway is it connected to? 

    have you powered off the modem and router?

    then power on the modem first and give it a couple minutes, 

    then power on the router and give it a couple minutes.
