Router lights blinking unusually

2020-08-02 04:21:44 - last edited 2020-08-03 05:49:42

Model: Archer C55

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Recently my router started behaving oddly. Usually 4 of the LEDs are on - Power, the 2 Wifi ones, and the Internet connectivity.

However, from yesterday, the Power LED started blinking and the other 3 LEDs were off, but they blinked suddenly now and then.

After sometime, the Power LED became stable but the other LEDs didn't come up. They would again blink for a little bit and then get turned off completely.

I can't find a solution to this anywhere. The internet service provide is checking the connectivity at the moment. But since this issue is new, I am considering the router aspect of it as well.

Can anyone please suggest a solution?

Advanced thanks

Regards

Hi,

Do you still use the original power adapter? Was there any power cut or bad weather or firmware upgrading before it stops working?

Try to hard reset it by holding the reset button or hole for 10s.

Are you able to access its web UI from a browser? What is the hardware and firmware version?

When and where did you buy this also? If nothing can make it power on correctly, you may need to contact the local tech support to check the warranty cause the device seems faulty:
