I seem to be getting daily link up/down errors for Ext switch port 2 in my system log (see below)
Is there anything I should be concerned about?

I also notice that the internet LED on my router is frequently not lit despite being online. Sometimes it is on. Is that a hardware/firmware problem?

What was the model number and firmware version are you running??

Also ADSL or VDSL??

Oh ok, I remember that firmware had a issue with the internet LED, on PTM >>> IPOE connections.

If the internet is working fine, and the internet LED doesn't bother you, you can leave it as is.

Regarding the port 2(eth1.0) entered disabled state issue, it means a device is dropping the LAN connection and reconnecting.

Hi BF
Thanks for that.

It's my own stupidity!

Have checked port 2, it's my NAS drive powering up and down on a daily basis!!

The internet LED is on today but I guess I should update to f/w 2.52.d41
