What is the right hand indicator light on SKY Q box?

There are three lights on the front of the SKY Q box.  What is the far right hand one please?  It's illuminated and I've never noticed it lit before.

Hi @pra29 

Check that the button isn't stuck.

If it isn't have you tried a Q box reboot.

To reboot press Standby on your Sky Q remote (if the box responds to the remote), and then switch off and unplug at the mains.
Wait at least 30 secs and then Plug back in and switch your Sky Q box back on at the mains.
Wait for the on screen instructions to disappear and the front led to turn Amber. Then wait for 30 secs before you press Home on your Sky Q remote or if this is not working press the standby button on the front of the Q box (Amber led)

note: some features may take up to 5 minutes to return.

Hi @pra29   Green = On, Amber = Standby and Red = Eco off completely.

Hi @pra29   Just to the right of the power button (described above), there is a WPS button that flashes amber when it activated. The left hand one is rotating blue and red when recording or downloading.

Hi @pra29 can you provide a screen shot as I'm failing to see what you are actually seeing? With your Sky Q box

I'm guessing OP is talking about router and not TV receiver.
