The LED light on Winston indicates its status. Here are the meanings:
Color | Meaning |
Green | Winston is starting up, such as when you first plug it in or when it reboots |
| Alternating Green and Blue | Winston is downloading a new firmware update and will restart shortly. Please note that Winston will likely return to a pulsing purple state for a few seconds before restarting. |
| Amber | The WAN port is not receiving signal (Winston has no internet connection). Check your connection to your modem. |
| Pulsing Purple | Winston is running normally |
| Red | A critical Winston software service is down. Please unplug Winston and plug it back in. If the red light persists, please contact Winston Privacy for assistance. |
Note: Upon just turning on, Winston may take a few seconds to display a color (usually green at first) - this is normal!
