Orange DSL Light On ZyXEL VMG8924-B10A

Hi everyone,

I've recently bought one of these routers and have set it up correctly as shown here: http://www.kitz.co.uk/routers/zyxel_VMG8324-B10A_vds...

I've also updated the firmware to the latest but even though I can access the internet, the DSL light is orange. Any ideas as to why this could be?

Kind regards,

William

I've just found out that's it's supposed to be orange!

Any idea as to what's going on with the link time?

Anyone?

What's the problem? (not that I have any experience with VDSL)

Firmware bug......

Since Link time = 7 min 43 sec

vs

Link Uptime: 0 day: 3 hours: 7 minutes

missing hours....what are the stats now (just link time and Link Uptime)

Hi guys,

Thanks for coming back to me.

Link Uptime: 0 day: 7 hours: 56 minutes.

Since Link time = 56 min 21 sec.

I've got the latest firmware update. Which one is the stable?

The one with the horses in.

Excuse me?! I get your joke but it doesn't help me!

All I can see from your OP is that the router has a rather strange way of reporting the stats. In particular

Since Link time = 7 min 43 sec
FEC: 14409 0
CRC: 0 14
ES: 0 13
SES: 0 0
UAS: 0 0
LOS: 0 0
LOF: 0 0
LOM: 0 0
Latest 15 minutes time = 8 min 19 sec

and the positioning of the two UAS entries.

The difference between the link uptime and the total time is easily explained.

As for not helping - your post of the stats asking "What is going on with the link time?" doesn't give us any idea as to what you find odd, your post "Anyone?" magnifies that obtuseness, and the post I replied to is as clear as mud as to what you see as a problem.

Maybe you could tell us what you are worried about?
