If you use a power adapter and the Power LED and other LEDs are off when the access point is turned on,
do the following:
Make sure that the power adapter is correctly connected to the access point and that the power adapter
is correctly connected to a functioning power outlet. If it is in a power strip, make sure that the power
strip is turned on. If it is plugged directly into the wall, verify that the outlet is not switched off.
Make sure that you are using the NETGEAR 12V, 2.5A power adapter for this product.
If the error persists, a hardware problem might exist. For recovery instructions or help with a hardware
problem, contact technical support at netgear.com/support.
Power LED Remains Solid Amber
When you turn on the power to the access point, the Power LED lights solid amber temporarily and then
turns solid green, indicating that the startup procedure is complete and the access point is ready.
If the Power LED remains solid amber and does not turn solid green, a failure occurred or the access point
is malfunctioning.
If the Power LED does not turn solid green, do the following:
1. Turn the power off and back on and wait several minutes to see if the access point recovers.
2. If the access point does not recover, you can use the Reset button to return the access point to its
factory default settings. For more information, see Use the Reset Button on page 110.
If the error persists, a hardware problem might exist. For recovery instructions or help with a hardware
problem, contact technical support at netgear.com/support.
Power LED Is Blinking Amber Continuously
When you turn on the power to the access point, the Power LED lights solid amber temporarily and then
turns solid green, indicating that the startup procedure is complete and the access point is ready. During
regular operation, the only time that the Power LED blinks amber temporarily is when firmware is being
upgraded.
If the Power LED blinks amber continuously and does not turn solid green, the access point did not receive
an IP address from a DHCP server.
Check to make sure that the DHCP client of the access point is enabled (see Enable the DHCP Client on
page 89), that your network includes a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server), and that
the DHCP server can reach the access point (both must be on the same network).
If you network does not include a DHCP server, you might need to configure a fixed (static) IP address on
the access point (see Disable the DHCP Client and Specify a Fixed IP Address on page 88).
Power LED Is Alternating Green and Amber
If the Power LED is alternating green and amber, the access point is receiving insufficient Power over
Ethernet (PoE).
Check to see why the PoE switch cannot provide sufficient PoE power to the access point. Most likely, the
PoE power budget of the PoE switch is oversubscribed and you might need to disconnect another PoE
device from the PoE switch to make sufficient PoE power available for the access point.
