This router is only used to plug a VoIP phone into, which connects wirelessly (set to media bridge) to an RT-AC86U.
When the router was turned on today (it's turned off nightly), the VoIP phone had no signal, and the router gives a series of blinking lights:
All the lights flash on for a second, then turn off with only the power and two lights on the right still on. FYI, the two on the right at USB and 5Ghz, neither of which are used. A few seconds later, it does this routine a second and I think a third time, and then those two right lights flicker, then stay on *while* the power light flashes off and on.
Is this a code that means something other than being bad?
Also, if it's bad, is there any reason I can't use another brand to do the same thing? I have an old Linksys WRT54G. I may even have a Linksys AC1200 router.
