  • Hi myrouterisefhed,

     

    Welcome to the community!

     

    1. What is the firmware version of the router?

    2. What is the status of the Internet LED (planet symbol) on the front panel?

    3. You can try performing a loop back test to check if the WAN port of the router is functional. This link may help out.
