Re: Hello, my linksys router is flashing wlan,internet...
Yes,
The links remains active when you are not using it and it is not unusual for lights to blink. And dont forget that Microsoft does various updates over the net when you are NOT using the machines.

Note that incoming traffic will cause the WAN (or Internet) light to blink even if it is 'probe' traffic trying to break in to your network. Such traffic is to be expected and is the reason you have firewall functionality in your gateway router.
On the inside, there is a bit of traffic on any LAN when the computers are turned on. Messages generated by the router itself are used to find computers and printers for a lot of different legitimate reasons.
wlan light going on and off is normal that means that there is activity between router and wireless device (computer, smartphone, etc) If you have intermitternt connectivity try this. Unplug router from power, then internet modem from power as well, wait about 30 seconds, reconnect modem, wait about a minute and lastly reconnect router. If this does not solve the issue you may want to call your internet service provider.

Please rate. Thanks.
Use your computer's web-browser to connect to the web-server "inside" the router.
Check the 'WAN' settings -- they seem to be OK, since you have Internet access.
Check the 'Wireless' settings, or just rerun the Wireless Configuration Wizard, to rebuild your wireless network.
Also check if the power light on your router is blinking. If it is blinking, that's an indication of hardware failure. To revive it, do a hard reset. Press and hold the power button of the router for 30 seconds then unplug the power. Wait for 30 seconds again before you plug it back in.
it will continuously blink . this shows the siganl is transmitting from the access point. and this frequency of this light blinking will increase when some client computers are connected to your access point or router
When the red WLAN light is flashing in conjuction with the internet light it just means a wireless computer is connected to the internet through the router
However I had a problem with the internet light flashing red and it required the router to be reconfigured

You can try the steps on this link. This will give you a step by step guide on how you can reconfigure the the router for timewarner (cable) connection. click here.
The WLAN light will normally blink if there is data passing through. Most often if the problem is that you need a reboot for the router to work again you will need to update the firmware of your router. You need to go to www.linksys.com then click on the top right search then look for your model number then select the option to WRT54G downloads. Search for your model and then download the firmware. After that on a computer wired to your router go to http://192.168.1.1 through Internet Explorer. Click on the administration tab then click Choose. Select the file that you downloaded then click on Upgrade. That should fix your problem.
