Hi bosoxguy17,
The LAN ports of the router is gigabit. If the device connected to it is gigabit as well then the light is white. If the device connected is upto 100Mbps only then the light is amber.

Your Amazon FireTV has a fast ethernet connection (100 mbits), and your PS4 has a gigabit connection (1000 mbits).
The router shows fast ethernet with amber, and gigabit with white. So there is nothing wrong with the router (or the two devices).
