AFAIK, think that means connected but not sync'd. I have the older white router with the latest F/W. Once I turn the router on the "i" light is off. After a few seconds it turns orange but I cannot surf. As soon as the light goes green it has sync'd. |

Looking at the time you it should be working for you now. When its Orange it means that you HAVE synced, meaning you have made to connection to the DSLAM at the exchange and the connection has been negotiated. After that you have a valid username and password which is checked and you are given an IP for the network, in this case sky's network which lets you use the internet. Your username is in the router and pre-entered, and you should not need to do anything, it may be that you have been physically been connected to the network but your account needs to be activated. |
