If you're wondering which LEDs should be on your Hitron xIQ D60 5G Router, this guide will help you understand the expected LED behavior and what each light indicates.

Expected LEDs to Be On

At a minimum, the following LEDs should be illuminated to indicate that your D60 is functioning properly:

    • This LED should always be on when the device is powered.
  2. Internet LED:

    • Indicates that the router is connected to the internet, either through a wireline connection or a cellular connection.
    • This LED should be on if the router is online and has an active internet connection.
  3. Wi-Fi LED:

    • Indicates that the Wi-Fi functionality is enabled and broadcasting a wireless signal.
    • This LED should be on if Wi-Fi is active on your router.

The status of other LEDs will depend on how the D60 is physically connected and which services are associated with your account. Here's what to expect:

  1. 4G and 5G LEDs:

    • 4G LED: This will be on if the router is connected to a 4G cellular network.

    • If your router is connected to the internet via 5G, the 4G LED will be off, and vice versa.
