orange light

I just bought a nighthawk smart wifi router R6700-AC1750. After setup, I notice that the front panel led display showing an orange light on the LED labelled '1' (locates between 'USB' and '2'). Can anyone tell me if this is normal?

Thx in advance.

  • Sorry about the post. I think that I figured out the reason after reading the other post.

    I pluged in ARLO on the #1 port so it is orange since speed is only 100.

      Yes. The LED for the LAN ports are colour coded.

       

      100 Mbps = amber

       

      1000 Mbps = white

       

      All in the manual.
