Lights not working on Mofi conversion

Post by A.Bursell »

Searched and found a similar post, but not quite the same. I have converted a Mofi to WiFiX and the lights are not all behaving. On the Mofi firmware, all of the lights functioned. Unsure if there is a difference in hardware but could use some help.

Probably the first thing to know is how the Mofi lists the LEDs:
Power/Booting/Status
Internet
Wifi
WAN
LAN1
LAN2
LAN3
LAN4
Is this the same as the standard WE826?

I am now running WiFiX 2019-11-16. The Wifi light and the LAN lights appear to work fine. None of the other lights function. The other thread I mentioned had a way to make the WAN light function, which is great, but it would be nice to have them all working. I have played around in the settings and not had any luck. But I can, for example, make the LAN4 light come on and stay on as default (like a power light would), but I cannot get the power light to come on for anything.

Might just take someone with functioning lights posting what their settings are?

Thanks for the help.

I am on WiFix 10/20/2019, hopefully that will work for you!

Thanks! Unfortunately I checked and my settings are identical. I did try a different GoldenOrb version while troubleshooting another issue with no change, so I'm thinking maybe it is a hardware difference? My lights worked with the Mofi firmware right before flashing.

Any thoughts?

Everything I have read says that the MOFI and the 826 are identical, so it shouldn't be a hardware issue. But now that you know the settings are the same, try playing around with the led settings and see what happens.

Notice in the default list there is no setting for a "power" light, for example. This tells me it should be built into the program. Or maybe hardwired (although I would think if that was the case it would come on regardless of firmware). But there is still in the dropdowns a way you can supposedly access the power light. If I set up the light the way I think it should work - I get nothing from the power light.

However, if I change the light to lan4, then the lan4 comes on and stays on with no other changes - just the way I would expect the power light to act.

This tells me there is either a hardware difference or something in the software, and not my settings. Or am I missing something? Ideas?

Thanks again.

Thank you- yes! I read that thread and I was able to get the WAN light to work, but my power, status, and internet lights have never worked with this firmware, thought they do work with the Mofi firmware.

I think it's definitely a firmware issue.
