RN316 Display stays on all the time (just the "OK" and "NETGEAR")

This began happening recently and I can't seem to get it to not display even after re-booting. Thanks!

    Hi Woodie1,

     

    I agree with StephenB. It will be best to contact NETGEAR Support so they can process an RMA for the chassis. Support may do some additional hardware checks and ask for the proof of purchase of the device before they process the RMA.

     

    Regards,

      Thanks for your response. Yes, barely. It was shipped on 11/21/14 to me. I'm the original purchaser.

        I'd contact support then (via my.netgear.com).  I think the only way to resolve this is to get an RMA.  But maybe wait for JohnCM_S or Marc_V to confirm.

      Hi StephenB, I was mistaken - I have 2 RN316 units and this one is out of warranty. Any thoughts on getting it repaired? Thanks!

        I don't think it's repairable.  

         

        Note there is a proximity sensor that is supposed to trigger the lights.  So maybe check to see if something nearby is tricking the sensor???
