Here is a guide to the LED behavior:<br><br><b>Solid Green:</b> Access Point is meshed with other Access Points<br><br><b>Solid Blue:</b> Access Point is configured, but not meshing with other Access Points <br><br><b>Blinking Green (constant):</b> Access Point is meshed but has poor connection to other Access Points (can also occur when there is very network high traffic, for instance when running a speed test)<br><br><b>Blinking Green/Yellow pattern</b>: When the Access Point encounters an issue it will display a pattern of green/yellow flashing lights.<br><br>Error code 521 is expressed as a sequence of green/yellow lights: 5 blinks, 2 blinks, 1 blink, and repeat. <br>Error code 521 is there to alert you that there is interference on the 5 Ghz channel. 5 Ghz performance will be impacted until this is addressed. Changing channels to a different 5 Ghz channel can resolve this issue.<br><br><b>Blinking Red:</b> Hardware fault detected. Contact DEWALT Customer Support <br><br><b>Blinking White/Light Blue</b>: The Access Point is powering up.

<span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The DCT100 Jobsite WiFi Access Point includes (1) Access Point with 6’ foot 120V cord, (2) weather seals, and a manual. <br><br>An Ethernet cable is not included. We recommend using outdoor rated Cat5E or Cat6 Ethernet cables to ensure maximum throughput and performance. Do not use flat Ethernet cables, they will not properly seal with the included weather seal and could compromise weather resistance of the Access Point which can lead to damage.</span></span><br> 

<span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">By default when you first create a network you are automatically the administrator of that network.

<p><span><font size="3">While there is virtually no limit to the number of Access Points or devices you can have on the network, you might notice your internet traffic (throughput) slows down when a large number of users is consuming data at the same time. Note - the exact number of users can vary based on the network size, network quality, incoming bandwidth, and more.</font></span></p> <p><span><font size="3"> </font></span></p> <p><span><font size="3">If you find that your throughput is slowing down, you can connect a second DEWALT Jobsite WiFi Access Point to an internet service provider (ISP) using an Ethernet cable and weather seal. The DEWALT Jobsite WiFi system has the ability to load-balance network traffic across multiple internet connections. This second connection can be a branch of the same network as your first Access Point or an entirely separate system (e.g., one unit is connected to a cable modem while the other is connected to a DSL modem). The DEWALT Jobsite WiFi system will automatically balance and distribute your unit’s traffic to identify the optimum route for your data - in real time.</font></span></p>

<span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">You can create up to three networks that each broadcast with separate SSIDs &amp; passwords and select between WPA2 or WPA2-Enterprise encryption. This can be done when you first create a network, and can also be edited from the DEWALT WiFi app or <a href="http://digital.dewalt.com" target="_blank">digital.dewalt.com</a> website.<br><br>By default, all communication traffic between access points is secured with end-to-end 192-bit encryption keys and XSalsa. To help deter theft, the Access Points cannot be registered to another account until it is deleted and unregistered from your account.</span></span> <h6><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><font color="#666666">Related articles: </font></span></span></h6> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="https://bdk.secure.force.com/FAQm/PKB_Article_Mobile?id=kA0C0000000D2rVKAS" target="_blank">Can I get step-by-step instructions for installation of DEWALT WiFi Jobsite Access Points?</a></span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">The account permissions feature allows companies to share access to networks between multiple users. Users can have differing levels of access so a network can be both remotely managed and monitored while limiting the access of certain users.  Account administrators can designate network managers who can view the status of the network, but not make alterations to the network itself. <br><br><b>See Also:</b><br><a href="https://bdk.secure.force.com/FAQm/PKB_Article_Mobile?id=kA0C00000004eK5KAI" target="_blank">How do I setup account permissions?</a><br><a href="https://bdk.secure.force.com/FAQm/PKB_Article_Mobile?id=kA0C00000004eKAKAY" target="_blank">What are the differences between account administrators and account managers?</a><br><a href="https://bdk.secure.force.com/FAQm/PKB_Article_Mobile?id=kA0C00000004eKKKAY" target="_blank">What changes can I make to team members I have invited?</a></span></span>

<span style="font-size: 14px;">In a mesh network there are multiple Access Points but your device will only connect to one Access Point at a time. As you walk around the site your device will remain connected until you are far enough away from an Access Point that your device seeks a new one to connect to. The decision to connect to a particular Access Point is determined by your device, so if you are moving you may not be always be connected to the closest Access Point. Toggling the WiFi on your device off and on will force the device to connect to the closest Access Point and help improve your performance.</span>

<p dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">For best possible performance we recommend locating your Internet Service Provider (ISP) connection as close to the jobsite as possible. When possible, consider having the ISP line located within the building itself. Each DEWALT Jobsite WiFi Access Point can communicate up to 200 feet (61 m) with line of sight to one another. If your jobsite is greater than 200 feet (61 m) from an Internet source reach out to us at 1-800-4-DEWALT or <a href="mailto:wifi@dewalt.com" target="_blank">wifi@dewalt.com</a> and we can provide partners to help bring the Internet connection closer to your jobsite.</span></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><b id="docs-internal-guid-28da669d-f5bb-8701-7e9b-06c3ec19b071">Note: DEWALT is not an ISP</b></span></span></p> <p> </p>

If they are off, plug the Access Points back in. If they are blue or flashing green, check to see if other nearby Access Points have lost power. If all Access Points are plugged in, look for obstructions that could cause interference between Access Points that do have connectivity. Consider moving or adding Access Points to bring connectivity back to the affected area. </span></span><br>
