On page 6 it gives you details on what the lights mean.
Left light is router link aka the connection to the router. If its green, it means the connection should be good. Right light is supposed to be device link. If you're going red/amber, you don't have a good connection to the device.
I'd use the steps I outlined before to work on optimal placement of the device. Should you want to upgrade firmware, page 36 walks you though how to upgrade the firmware.

Sorry, new to all this. I purchased this EX2700 in 2016. I just plug in the wall and it connects to my router. I am trying to link to my wifi thermostat which it links fine but tends to drop frequently to where I can't update the thermostat remotely. So to update the filmware, just plug in ethernet cable to computer and download from netgar site?
