If the router still won't turn on and you are sure it is plugged in correctly try to restart it. Unplug the router for 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
-=== Router has a weak signal ===
+== LEDs never turn off ==
-"My internet is really slow"
+Once turned on, the LEDs should all light up for 10 seconds and then turn off. If the LEDs stay turned on, there is something wrong inside the router.
-=== Interference ===
+=== Cycle the power to see if the router recovers. ===
-Other electronic devices such as microwaves and phones may be working over the same frequency. Try keeping them further away from the router in order to decrease interference.
+Power cycling the router will allow it to start over and re-establish a connection to the internet.
-=== Incorrectly inserted cables ===
+=== Clear the router’s configuration to factory defaults. ===
-A weak signal could be caused if the input/output cables are incorrectly inserted. The ethernet cord should be plugged into the back of the router and any outgoing cables should be plugged into the black output slots. Make sure all cables are completely plugged in.
