RAXE300 and RAXE500 internet lights

I’m looking to purchase a RAXE300 or RAXE500, I’m wanting to
Know if the internet light flashes when there is traffic flowing. Also does the WiFi and Ethernet lights flash the same way? I have the RAX70 which does this but don’t want to buy one and find out that it doesn’t
Thanks

  • why are you wanting this feature? 

    Thats what I'm curious about? 

    I generally don't choose a router based on whether a led blinks or not. Especially when they're different specs, performance, and price.

      Thanks for the replies
      I’ve found that link useful, RAXE500 doesn’t blink when traffic passes
      Just now need to find how RAXE300 behaves
      I want to find out as I want to know if my connection is getting pinged and also I’m used to this feature as previous routers had this
      Thanks again

        Is this router not popular, I thought id ask the question on the forum instead of buying one and finding out, just don’t want to waste money
