r8000 led 2 stays red

After updating to firmware version V1.0.3.54_1.1.37 the number 2 led stays red. Router seems to be functioning normally as far as I can tell. Tried a power off and back on but the does not turn white. I have checked the manual but it does not mention that led in the trouble shooting section.

    Did do a reset on the router gusting you are talking the lan port number 2 on the router, if a device is connect it amber is 10/100mb and white is 1gb.

      Yes, I figured it out this morning. I had connected a laptop computer to lan port 2 and have it turned off so that is the reason for the red led.
