What does the red LED light mean on the RAX-48

I have the RAX-48 Nighthawk AX5200 router and it performs very well for the short time I have had it now.  My question is that I cannot find an answer in the manual is what does it mean to have a red light on the LED for the internet?  All my devicies work fine and I have access to the internet but the internet LED is red instead of white.

    What gateway do you have it connected to?

      Thank you for your reply.  I solved my own problem by disconnecting the ethernet cable behind my modem that was also connected behind my new router to basically reset the sysetem and it corrected itself.  No more red LED light displayed on the router for the internet.
