Xfinity Gateway Light Meaning: Every Color Explained

Your Xfinity Gateway has one small light on the front. Its color and whether it blinks tell you if you're online, and it means the same thing on every Xfinity Gateway. Here's what each one means.

What the light means

Light	What it means
Solid white	All good. Your gateway is on and working. A slight purple tint to the white is normal too.
White during setup	It's only partly working because it isn't activated yet. Finish the setup steps in the Xfinity app.
Solid red	No internet. The gateway can't connect to Xfinity, so get in touch with them if it stays red.
Blinking blue	WPS mode. It's waiting to pair with a device, and it goes back to white once that device connects.
Blinking amber	There's an outage on Xfinity's network. If you have the Pro WiFi Extender, it keeps you online over its backup connection.
No light	The gateway is off.

If the light shows any other color

Xfinity says any other color, or a mix of colors, means the gateway is still connecting to its systems. Give it about 15 minutes to finish. If you still can't get online after that, contact Xfinity.
