      TZUTC: -0400       MSGID: 2198.windowsb@1:2320/105 23bc23d0       PID: Synchronet 3.18a-Linux May 24 2020 GCC 7.5.0       TID: SBBSecho 3.11-Linux r3.173 May 24 2020 GCC 7.5.0       CHRS: ASCII 1       Howdy!              When I turn the UPS on the DSL Modem and Linksys Router start up.       A few seconds later the 3 WAN LEDs go OFF for a moment and turn On again.              I wait a while before I turn the XP pc on to let the Router and DSL Modem       finish their "Handshaking Procedure".              I've always been an IDIOT Light watcher and I'm puzzled why the 3 LEDs on       the Router will again go OFF and back ON again about 3 minutes after the       power is applied to them.              I still wait a few minutes more before I turn on the XP pc, and during       that period I see the WAN LEDs doing a lot of binking.              The Port 1 LEDs will ocassionally blink but not in time with what the WAN       LEDs are doing.              As I am waiting. I also see the Activity LED on the DLS Modem ocassionally       blink, but I don't see any corresponding blinking on the Routers WAN LEDs       at the same time.              When the Routers WAN LEDs stop "Handshaking" and stay ON I turn on the XP       pc and start using the computer.              Is it unusual for the 3 WAN LEDs on the Linksys Router to all go OFF for a       moment and back ON when it is started up?              Thanks from the old Idiot Light watcher.              73 de Ed W9ODR . .                                   ... Heck, if it's fried, sweet, smoked or greasy, I'll eat it.       --- MultiMail/MS-DOS v0.49        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424       SEEN-BY: 229/426 452 664 240/5832 249/206 317 400 292/854 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 633/280       PATH: 2320/105 261/38 712/848 280/464 229/101 426           |
