LAN Lights remain amber
The LAN led lights still blink amber for the two Unifi UAF-LR access points even though they seem to be operating. Is this a problem?
Also, I have disabled the Netgear Router WiFi radio and are using only the Unifi access points for WiFi transmission. Could I use the Netgear Router as an additional access point by assigning the same SSID as for the Unifi access points?
Thanks

Amber means the port is running at 100 Mbps instead of 1000 Mbps. You should check the cables. They could be bad.

Yes, you can. Just be sure to use a different Wi-Fi. Otherwise, there will be competition for airtime.
