Connectivity tips

You can use the Power, DSL and Ethernet lights on the front panel of the Actiontec GT784WNV to help diagnose home networking connectivity problems. Follow the steps below to diagnose and test the possible solutions for any connectivity problems you are experiencing.

What do the router status lights indicate?
The router status light indicators are used to help troubleshoot connectivity issues.
Is the power light on?
If the light is solid green, the router power is on.

If there is no light, confirm that the power switch on the back panel of the router is in the "on" position and the power cord is securely connected to the electrical outlet.
Is the DSL light on?
If the light is solid green, the connection between the Actiontec GT784WNV router and Verizon High Speed Internet is established.

If it is flashing green, a connection to Verizon is in the process of being established.

If it is flashing red, a connection to Verizon cannot be established. We recommend:

Confirm all the cables are securely connected to the back of the gateway

Ensure the phone line coming into the back of the gateway does not have a filter installed on it and connects directly to a wall jack

Confirm all phone filters are installed except for the line to the gateway router
Is the Internet light on?
If the light is solid green, the gateway is connected to the Internet.

If the light is solid red, the gateway is not connected to the Internet.

If there is no light, the connection to Verizon High Speed Internet is not present or the modem is in bridge mode. To learn more, check out the user guide.
If you’re using an Ethernet cable to connect, is the port light on?
If the light is green, the Ethernet connection between your device and the router is established.

If there is no light, the connection is not established.
Is the wireless light on?
If the light is solid green, this indicates the wireless function is operating correctly.

If the light is flashing green, this indicates wireless traffic is passing between the router and your Wi-Fi device.
