Hi everyone,

Just curious about something, i have just realized that the ethernet port on the back of my rig is flashing orange i cant rememeber if it has ever been flashing green but i have always thought orange was a warning sign. All the lights on my router are green. The thing is my internet is fine i have no problems as far as im aware just wanted to know if this was kinda normal or if something could be on the verge of going wrong?

I made a little mistake the other day when trying to take the voltage reading of my psu, i put the positive probe in the amp port of my multimeter and when i connected it to my molex my whole rig just shut down and would not boot up at all. The next morning i thought i would give it a go and it booted up just fine, so im just wondering maybe i shorted the light bulb on the ethernet port is that a possibility?

Like i said everything seems to be working fine just want an opinion on the orange light thats all.

cheers
 
Sometimes orange means its running at 10mbit on that port rather than 100mbit or 100mbit on a 1GB switch.
