Hi Listers,

But one still would have a hassle, I think, because sometimes the dsl
status light flickers, which apparently is wrong, as it should burn
constantly.

I don't know whether one would be able to identify that with the
light probe?

Regards,

Riana

Hi Patricia;

If you can tell them what lights are on/off in an order, let's say from
top
to bottom, and the IP tech person can't determine which of these lights
is
supposed to be On/off and what their colors should be, it is probably a
tech
support person that you don't want to talk to in the first place.  I
don't
think any of the lights on a modem are suppose to glow in more than 1
color.
Take care.
Mike

Mike,

I hear ya there buddy, but even with a light probe all it does is make
that
buzzin' sound to let ya know a light is on, but sure as heck don't tell
ya
the color of the blinkin' light which is always what they ask...is the
green
light on? I'm thinkin' green stands for go so that should be like a no
brainer for them to figure out or, otherwise why are you callin'?

Good Morning Richard;

I am sorry about posting such a message but, I have run into
situations
with
our Internet Provider when I needed to know what lights, are or are
not,
lit
on the modem and not having someone sighted around to tell me so I
could
tell the IP tech support person.  Without my service working
correctly it
renders Jaws useless with trying to use many programs and functions
of
the
computer.  I thought that this little tip could help people keep Jaws
working more efficiently and have less frustrations in using Jaws in
their
everyday lives.  You see, if I lay on Doctor Phil's couch long enough
I
can
relate anything to using Jaws!  LOL  Hope this helps clear up my
convoluted
ways of thinking!  LOL  Take care.
Mike

Mike,
This isn't Jaws related, but thanks for the info just the same.

Hi All;

Here is a tip I ran across on another list that I thought might come
in
handy for a lot of us.

Dealing with lights on your router,modem or other device.


hi folks, thought of this a while back, and then saw this post and
realized
I was right, it will work, so passed it along! elf ----- Original

For Lisa and others who may be concerned with knowing the status of
indicator lights on a router or modem, I can determine which lights
are
on,
off, or blinking with a light probe.  Independent Living aids has
one
for
twenty-three dollars and change.  They work well for a number of
things.
I
use my probe to tell me about the lights on various cooking devices
such
as
a rice cooker, foreman grill, and many other things. It will find
lights
on
those little cube shaped power supplies that plug into the wall;
the
blinking light on the victor stream;  the light on the computer
speakers;
and a host of other things I can't bring to mind just now.  Just a
thought.
Lois Goodine.

Hope this helps.  Take care.
Mike
