Signal strength LEDs
The signal strength LEDs are located on the right corner of the front panel, to the right of the connection status LEDs:
Each lit up LED represents a different value of the router's current signal strength in RSSI:
NO. OF LIT UP LEDs |
SIGNAL STRENGTH VALUE |
0 |
≤ -111 dBm |
1 |
-110 dBm to -97 dBm |
2 |
-96 dBm to -82 dBm |
3 |
-81 dBm to -67 dBm |
4 |
-66 dBm to -52 dBm |
5 |
≥ -51 dBm |
The signal strength LEDs can also be used as a time indicator for holding the reset button.
When you press and hold the reset button, you have to hold it pressed
for 5 seconds (by default) to initiate a factory reset. Each second, a
new signal strength LED lights up. When all 5 LEDs are lit up, it
represents that 5 seconds have passed since you pressed down on the
reset button and that you can release it.
After releasing the button, all 5 LEDs will start blinking every 1 second. This signifies that the router has begun the factory reset.
