[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1630756, member: 234411"] Hi All, Occasionally, when I bring up the AirPort Utility on my MBPro (specs in signature), I get a green light on the internet connection but a spinning ball which on hovering states that it's trying to read the settings from my AirPort Extreme router in the adjacent room - then the orange triangle appears as shown below. However, I can use the internet as I'm doing right now on the laptop. If I log out and back into my account, both green lights show up for a while - at the same time using the AirPort Utility on my iPad Air2 & also viewing it on my cabled iMac shows both green lights lit. I ran 'wireless diagnostics' which seem to say all was OK - I can also ping my ISP. So, just not sure what the issue may be or whether it's even that important? Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks - Dave :) . [ATTACH=full]21554[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
