Flashing orange light on Netgear79 Nighthawk R7000

The display on my router has a white flashing power light a white flashing light next to it and then another white light and then over the number one on the numerical display 1234 the number one is a flashing orange or red light. I’m having serious connectivity issues.
  • What modem do you have? 

    What firmware is on the router? 

    What connectivity issues are you having? we need a better description to help you. not just "connectivity issues"

    If you go to the manual, it goes over what each led is and whats its flashing/color means. 

    I'd advise looking at that so you can give a better description of the led's as well.
