WiBox-E & WiPort-G Wireless LED Functionality

Why is the wireless LED on my WiBox-E off when wireless is enabled and on when wireless is disabled?


There is a known issue with the wireless status LED on the products listed below.

  • WB2100EG0-01
  • WB2100EG1-01
  • WB2100EG2-01
  • WB2100EGB-01
  • WP2001000G-02
  • WP2002000G-02
  • WP200200SG-02
  • WP200200KG-02

The product functions correctly, however, the Wireless LED light operates opposite of what is shown in the User Guide. The current behavior of the Wireless LED is:

Wireless LED StatusWireless On/OffWireless Status
On SolidOffDisconnected or disabled
On at boot, then blinkingOnSearching for network
Blinking (very short)OnAttempting to associate
OffOnAssociated, power management off
Off with WLAN activity, on with no WLAN activityOnAssociated, power management on


This is an issue in the wireless radio driver only, not in the design of the product.

Lantronix is working with the radio manufacturer to have the problem corrected and a firmware fix will be released at a future date.
