Hello Chris,

Don't have any on mine except for the connection icons.
Have you tried a reset of your router?
Reset button is behind router at the base. Use a paper clip, press for a few second (I think 5 or 7 sec is good). The user manual give you more precise info on how to....
If you do this, you will need to check the user guide for the default user/password.
If this does not work, try an upgrade of the firmware. You will need access your router via your browser.
Use this address in your browser to connect to your router - 192.168.1.1. You will be promted for your user and password. Should you not know/remember it, try the defaults from the user guide. If still can't access you will need to reset the router anyway.
Ones in; go to ->Advanced TAB-> Administration ->"Update router" or something similar. You will be able upload the new firmware file from your computer.
This solution worked fine for me with an upgrade. But I tried to upgrade before reset and it did not work.
Had to reset and then upgrade. If something is corrupted in the routers data, it will upgrade with it.
MInd you, I did not check if the router was working right after reset without the upgrade.
Good luck!
