I have limited computer knowledge and need basic help in setting up the USG40
Went thru the basic setup and the status is as follows:
Power light - green solid
SYS light - green solid
WAN P1 - green flashing - connected to ISP modem
LAN P2 - amber flashing - connected to a linksys VPN router
LAN P3 - amber flashing - connected to a linksys router with wi-fi
LAN P4 - Connected to my computer to do the setup

Routers seems to be working but concerned about the flashing amber lights

Accepted Solution
