    More details are needed. 

    1. What firmware is on the router?

    2. What modem/gateway is it connected to? 

    3. 2nd button from left/right?  if its on the left its the internet icon and means it detected a connection to a modem.

      I don’t know what firmware, it is connected to a Viasat modem has been no trouble. Yes the internet icon light is amber/orange. I got this in April 2020.I am using the old net gear 2.4 that I kept for now.

        That could be a bunch of things. Viasat as an ISP and can ship all manner of hardware to customers. A make and model can help to pin down problems.
