Why are my router lights blinking?
My Wi-Fi seems to be wokring fine with the 3 other lapotops in my house, but for some reason my iPhone won't connect to it. The router lights are blinking and I think that has something to do with it. I have unplugged it about 5 times and they still kept blinking, I made sure all the plugs were pluggedd into the box all the way but I seem to get the same results. I'm getting upset because I have to do work on my phone and I've about given up on this. It's just a Frontier router if that helps. I need some sort of help and I don't have time to call the company and be on the phone with them for an hour and get nowhere. Please help.
Added (1). There's also no password to the router so I'm not understanding the problem. I tried resetting the router and nothing. How do you know if your router and iPhone are not compadible? If so, how can I fix this? My phone works every other day without problems and since yesterday, it hasn't been working right. When I go into my Wi-Fi settings on my phone, the name of my router is on there but when i click on it ot connect, it just keeps loading, but nothing. It now has a lock on the router when there isn't one on it and it asks for a password but there isn't one, what would I type in for the password?

The lights blinking are normal for a router. Perhaps the IPhone, and the router, are not compatible or configured correctly.
Does your router have a password on it? You may need to have your phone know the address and the password of your router.
If all else fails, you can always connect the phone to the computer.
Call them. You'll wait longer for a good answer than if you would have called them when the problem started.
Bottom line is that it's probably an iphone issue or like the other guy said compatibility issue between the phone and router.
Router lights blink that's what they do.
The lights should be blinking. It means data transfer is happening.

- What's the difference between a cheap router and a good router? Just wanted to know the difference between a cheap router and an expensive router, I know that is a very broad question, I'm just a bit confused on how a router works. Does it increase my Internet speed on multiple devices? I get 50Mb per second, Well at least that's what I pay for. I have a PS3 two iPhones and a tablet, as well as a desktop PC that is wireless. Can anyone recommend an excellent router under $150
