Hi ok1234,

Welcome to the community! 🙂 

Are you referring to the Test LED of the FVS318G that is flashing amber?  If yes, kindly try to reset the FVS318G back to factory default setting then check if the Test LED is still flashing amber.

If ever the Test LED is still flashing amber after doing a factory reset on the FVS318G, then it means that the device has failed.  I suggest you to open a chat / online case with NETGEAR Support and let them know the status of the FVS318G.  Attach a .doc or .pdf copy of the Proof of Purchase or Sales Invoice of the FVS318G on the chat / online case for warranty verification.  If ever the hardware warranty is still valid, an online replacement will follow.
