NETGEAR Model R6080 Internet LED is Red? (Not described in manual)

Firmware Version: V1.0.0.42

Router has Internet LED red and everything works fine.  The online PDF manual only documents Internet LED green and off, but not red.

Could you please tell me what the red LED means?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

    It usually indicates an issue between the modem and the router. It could be a wire issue, a modem, issue, or potentially even a router issue. 

    that's why I'd start with the cable.
