WRT 1900AC Notification Light Issues (May be Normal)

Hello. I'm hoping another owner, or a Linksys technician/moderator can help me out with this. I bought my WRT1900AC in July. I noticed once, about a month ago, I came home and the 5GHz notification light was not on. I didn't check connectivity but restarted the router and it came back on. I noticed the other day when I came home that it was off again and did the same thing to bring it back on. This morning, and just now (coming home from work), it was off again. I simply turned this laptop on and as soon as it connected the light came back on. The 2.4GHz radio notification has never gone off. Is this normal? I'm wondering if nothing connected to a given radio that the light naturally goes off after a certain period of time? I thought that it would stay on but solid when nothing was connected to indicate it was broadcasting and would flicker when actually communicating with a device. Any advice would be helpful. My initial conversation with Linksys was based on the thought that the radio itself was turning off/failing. It appears that it is actually the light only. If it isn't normal, I'll contact Linksys again.

Then, I recommend doing the following: Download the FW file from the support site first.
1. Save router config to file first using IE or FF with all security add-ons disabled.
2. Factory reset the router with all other devices disconnected or turned OFF accept for 1 wired PC.
3. Reload or Update the FW using IE or FF. Just download the FW file to your local wired LAN PC.
4. Factory reset the router and then set up from scratch first and test with out loading the saved config from file. Check to see if any problems are fixed before loading the saved config from file. Sometimes you need to set up from scratch with out loading the saved config file. Just safer that way.

Request for best connectivity Setup for WRT 1900ac. DHCP issue

Hello Customer Care Team.
I imported the WRT 1900ac router from the USA to my location in India. Apparently your Customer care in Indai don’t give any support for this fantastic router.
I am not at your mercy for assistance.
Please help & guide me in getting the best out of it and with a good setup.

Please help & provide your best solution for fast speed .
Thanks

Sorry you didn't get an answer faster but you have to know this is a peer to peer forum. it is users helping other users so not always the quickest way. First off, can you change your ISP router to modem only mode? It is best that way as you will get conflicts such as what you are seeing when there are two routers in the same link. You are getting the ISP router when you enter 192.168.1.1 because that is its address on the LAN side. It appears that your router is getting set to a 10.x IP because of the setup. You have two routers trying to work with DHCP so that is also an issue. If you can change the ISP router to modem only mode then once it is up disconnect it from the router and do a factory reset on your router and make sure it has the IP of 192.168.1.1 and you will then be able to make any changes you need to. the default login is password of admin and leave the user blank.

WRT 1900AC factory reset issues!

Hi everybody,
I bought my wrt router 1900ac a couple of days ago as to upgrade my existing EA4500. I have (had) my ea4500 wireless router setup as a bridge as my dhcp is set via a mikrotik router. Anyway, I tried to setup the wrt 1900ac the same way. what happened next was that i could not access the router setup page anymore. it keeps forcing me to go to the linksyssmartwifi page and tells me the router is not setup properly. i have tried to reset the router via holding the red reset button to no avail. i mean i have held it from 10 second to upward of a minute. i am out of ideas. please help!

ahonari,
I reset my WRT1900AC to factory defaults by holding in the recessed reset button for 30 seconds. You can see the LED's on the front and see when the router reboots and resets itself.
After reset connect to the router's LAN port and click the link below:
http://192.168.1.1
When you get to the setup page you can bypass the setup wizard and configure your router. At the login page you can either login with your Smart Wifi Account or click the Local Access link to bypass Smart Wifi. Bypassing Smart Wifi disables those cloud services. If you later want Smart Wifi Services when you login on the router click the Login to Smart Wifi link.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

Walkman and Notification light issue.

I bought E 1 (Single Sim) a couple of weeks back,with high expectations on Sony.From the second day, I had an issue with the Walkman Player. I updated the phone to 4.4.2 in the second week of purchase and the problem still continues.The following are the issues with the phone rite now:
Problem #1 : No smoothness in the music/songs that are played.
Problem #2 : The walkman player button (on the top) doesn't perform the fucntions that it has to.
Problem #3 : The notification blinks rarely and that too just for the new messages and emails.It never blinked for other notifications(whatsapp msgs,hangouts,facebook updates,missed call ).
How would Sony (Xperia Smartphones) expect to exsist in the near future while its phones' have so many minor issues?

HTC One M8: Notification Light

I just got the HTC One M8 two days ago and I just realized that the LED notification light is not working when I receive messages, emails, etc. It only works when charging.
HELP!

I found the solution on another forum (may have been mentioned here too) I had to do a factory reset on my phone and did not restore my applications/sign into Google. Sure enough, the notification light starting working. I am now downloading my apps again...unfortunately they do not restore after you complete the setup wizard then sign into Google so I am having to search and download each app one at a time.
Prior to the reset, I did disable Verizon Messages and cleared all the data/cache, confirmed the system messaging app was the default and confirmed the all notifications were checked under display and gestures but it still did not work.
I am also reading in other forums HTC is aware of this issue so hopefully it can be fixed without a reset.

Screen Display off with red Notification light

Dear Team I've BB Curve 9320 and am facing display off issue in my phone and regularly red notification light is blinking and keypad light is also lighting. I've visited East Delh(India) and Noida Sec 2 Service center but found there was no service center which address was mentioned there.I tried to update my software but failed into my attempt it's asking password everytime whenever I do a same.   Kindly resolve my issue and share valide contact no. to share my griviance with you people.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall chargerLeave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display doesRemove the batteryWait 15 minutesInsert the batteryWait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display doesThis has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happensObtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happensThe results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.  If possible, you could also attempt to boot into Safe Mode:KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe ModeIt may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When/if successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.

WRT 1900AC dropped 2.4 band wirless

I just experienced a problem on my day old WRT 1900AC router where it totally dropped the 2.4 band. It still broadcast the SSID, but no device could connect to it on that band (5 ghz was still fine), and the 2.4 light on the front was not lit.
Rebooting the router resolved the problem.
Has anyone else experienced this issue, or is this just a one off that I should not expect to see repeated?

Yes, it is really strange. Its been about 15 hours and has not re-occured, but we shall see. I already had installed the latest firmware and reset the router when I set it up. I have also now
(after the problem) moved it to the least congested chanel, instead of leaving it on auto. Out of something like 20 devices I have connected, perhaps 6 of them are on the 2.4 ghz band.
The only thing I can think of is that I had paired a new nest protect with it prior to losing th 2.4 band. That operates on the 2.4 band. I wonder is somehow that farged it up.
I'll give it a few days and see what happens. I also called tech support to log it, since I thought it likely represented a firmware bug.

How long Q10 LED notification light keep flashing ?

My Q10 LED notification light will begin flashing when a Call , E-mail or any comes in, but after a about 15 minutes it stops flashing. My previous is 9700, its LED keep flashing until you read or checked at the notification. Because this helpfull when we wait for important e-mail or event you can E-mail come in after you leave your phone for a while. I have tried tap the top button for 30 second, I think it not the way and not work for me. So I am wondering, how long is the LED supposed to keep flashing on the Q10? and is this normal ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The LED on all BB devices has always timed out after about 15 minutes or so. I had the 9700 and it timed out for me, as well, so I'm not sure why you say it was any different on the 9700.

WRT 1900AC and Windows 7 network naming question(s)

Background: I had a Linksys E3000 up and running for about 5 years in a stable network environment. The E3000 died, and I put in a new WRT 1900AC to replace it. In the process of getting things set up correctly the main "network name" in my network displays shows up as a name assigned to a Wireless portion of my network. The "Wired" portion shows up in diagrams, and to windows, as well as both of the main wirless bands but not as the central node between either of the wired Win7 computers and the internet I would like to get the Windows 7 machines on my network to display the wired network name in Windows 7 as the primary network, and NOT one of the wireless ones. Almost everything I want to be able to do is working just fine except for the network map display in Windows 7 where I have been trying to configure a "home group" that will not yield to my efforts.,
I use "suffix" notation in the naming, so my router on ethernet is .<ame>..NET, the wireless lower band is <name>...W24 upper band is <name>...W5. I have not figured out how to get the artifacts of the "setup sequence of events" out of the Windows 7 displays in "network neighborhood" so I have a more rational picture that has Ethernet at the core and the wireless bands as additional subsidiary networks not necessarily associated with all my devices. I know this is not technicallly a Linksys issue, but... Can I simply delete alll the neworking information in Windows 7, and reboot, and then force the computer to set up a network based on the correct network node labels. provided by the router? I'm a bit worried that I might have to "reset" everything which would be a huge **bleep** since almost all of what I want to do is working just fine, I'm just not quite clear some times whether the process of connecting from one computer to another, or to a NAS attached to the router is going through the wired network or the wireless one where performance can be a big issue. My Ethernet is "certified" at 1gbps which is a lot faster than the wireless networking. Sometimes it seems that accessing the NAS attached to the router is being done "through a tiny straw, not the fast pipe in the wiered world. I used to do a lot of NETBIOS networking in Windows "back in the day" and my network naming conventions have probably not kept up with the times, but I still have two Windows XP computers wired into my household network, and when "debugging" things I think of the Ethernet as central and the wirless portions as additional networks, not the other way around. Unfortunately Windows 7 seemed to grab the wireless names first, probably because the machines in question both have wireless and wired connectivity built in and available in their hardware and the one that was set up and working with the old router when the new one got plugged in was used to do the initialization initially using the default sequence built into the router software. I was able to go back and rename everything to get rid of the default names, but my Android based network monitor only works within range of the router and not when the phone is connected to the internet outside of the house. I've never been able to get the phone support folks to help me clear that issue up either. .. When I added the second computer, the same thing happened out of the box, Windows took the name of the first wireless network it found and put it into the network neighborhood as the device in the path between the new computer and the internet, I can "see" the host name of the router correctly from everywhere, and map to the 1TB disk I have hung on it from all of my computers, but the Internet connection is actually an ethernet drop from a cable modem to an ethernet port on the router, not to either of the wireless bands that show up.

@zundapman Hi! What's the current firmware of your router? Make sure that your firmware is up to date with the latest version. Also, are you referring to the Windows explorer's map or the User Interface map of the router or the Network and sharing map of your computer?

Nokia E7 notification light blinks on SMS delivery

Guys
Previously I had to format and factory reset my nokia e7 , after the format I found out that when I send and SMS and I receive the delivery , the notification light start blinking , and as soon as I touch the touch screen or press on any of the phone buttons ( like the home key, volume or unlock ) it stops blinking , I'm sure it only has to blink when I receive an SMS , not when I receive a delivery.
Do you guys know how I can fix this issue ?

We want you to love your software update pitbullmommy71! When did you update your phone? Have you tried going into phone settings and set up your notifications as you would like them? It can take a few days for your phone to normalize after the update, but this may be a bit much. Some apps may no longer be compatible with the new software so you can try running phone in Safe Mode or do a Hard Reset to see if this improves your phone. I've seen where some have completed a Hard Reset after the update and downloaded all same apps, and phone works flawlessly now. However, if you'd like to try Safe Mode first, (which is where all 3rd party apps are disabled), you can certainly try this for 24 hours to see if improves.

After updating to 4.4.2 the notification light does not change colors. It only blinks one color. How do I fix it?

Hello Saralynn43. Getting new updates is always fun, but then there are certain changes that can take some getting used to! This may be one of these cases where there may have been a change done to the notification system. What are the notifications that have been affected with the color change? Let us know as we'd like to look into this for you. Thank you.
