Actually the model is R6400v2.
I have been having some difficulty printing, so I decided to restart my router.
So I went to the user manual page 169 "Sequence to Restart Your Network".
After doing that, the internet LED (next to the power LED) is blinking white.
On page 10 of the user manual, there is a list of the LEDs and their functions.
There is no mention of the Internet LED blinking.
Does anyone know what the Internet LED blinking white means?
Also, how do I change it to solid white?
Thanking you in advance,
duronron

Internet traffic. Your Internet connection is sending and receiving data.
Is it working as expected?

You do not say how what the printer is and how it is connected to the network. Wifi? USB? Somerthing else?
The usual way to fix wifi printers is to find the printer maker's utility, the software that runs on your operating system. Then use that to connect the printer to the wifi.
The router just broadcasts wifi. It is then down to the printer to play ball. There isn't much that you can do on a router, beyond fixing it to a particular IP address, that affects what the printer gets up to.
Where possible, using the WPS feature can simplify things.
Printer issues rarely come down to the router. But it is hard to work out what might be going on given the lack of details.

Re: Trouble with internet LED blinking
I see now that I need to work on my printer, instead of the router.
Thanks, Michael
