Solid magenta ring light is on but network is OK

[alokeprasad]

I had a brief outage at the ISP.  When the service was restored, the Orbi (ver 2.7.5.4) became functional again but the ring light on the router is still solid magenta.
I could reboot it, but why? I don't want to risk any downtime if things go south..
Anyway short of a reboot (soft or hard) to reset the ring light?

You can try opening the Orbi web interface to the Internet Menu and click on "Test" at the top of the page.

The user has no control over the Orbi ring light.

That fixed it.👍

I have generally used the Advanced tab.  What does Test do?  Release and renew IP leases?
