Base Station Power Indicator Flashing
So I have my base station plugged into a UPS which is plugged into the wall. The UPS is outputting power, because it's also powering the Router and a USB device.The base station is slowly switching between Red and Yellow/Orange power indicators. The manual, helpfully, does not tell me what this means, but I generally assume it to mean some sort of panic condition.We've had the thing for nearly a year now; its performance (to wit: Staying powered on and staying connected to the router, which it is *hardwired into*) has steadily degraded to the point that it is now so rarely online it is surprising to see the alarm-online notifications pop up on my phone.What does this mean? Has my Base station died over less than a year's worth of use?
