Q: Why is my DSL light ﬂashing green?

A:

A ﬂashing green light indicates that no cable is attached to the DSL port or that the Motorola

Netopia

®

Gateway is negotiating a connection. A solid green DSL light indicates that an internet

connection is established.

If your DSL light does not become solid green, verify that the connection from the Motorola Neto-

pia

®

Gateway’s DSL port to the telephone/DSL jack is secure. If the connection is secure, contact

your ISP (Internet Service Provider) to verify that your DSL line is functioning properly.
