The Linksys Velop purple light may be flickering or remaining steady if you're using a Linksys Velop mesh Wi-Fi system. The thing is that, although it might be rather annoying to look at, this is a familiar malfunction, and it usually gets fixed with some simple measures. To solve the purple light, let's look at some Linksys Velop troubleshooting methods.

1. Check your Internet connection.

The purple light is quite often showing because the main node cannot connect to the internet. So, first, check your modem. Make sure that your internet service is working and that it has been switched on. You may use an Ethernet cable and connect the device directly to your modem to verify.

2. Restart Your Velop System.

Unplug your modem and the main node. Plug the modem back in first, and wait for around 30 seconds. Then plug in your Velop node and allow it to power on. Such a simple reboot could solve a short problem.

3. Check the Connection and Cables.

Check all Ethernet cables are set in tightly and are not damaged. Replace any cables that are connecting your Velop node to your modem just to be sure that it is not a cable problem.

4. Factory reset Linksys velop.

The reset should come into play if the purple light error persists. To reset Linksys Velop device, press and hold the button located on the bottom of your Linksys Velop for about ten seconds or until the light turns red. It will then reboot, after which you must set it up again using the Linksys app. This way often remedies the more serious setup issues that cause the purple light error.

5. Update Firmware.

The Linksys app also checks and installs any available firmware updates. This is breeding connectivity problems-if old firmware is running in the background.

Usually, the purple light on your Linksys Velop means that there is some kind of connection issue rather than a hardware failure. Well under a few Linksys Velop troubleshooting steps should help you restore your Wi-Fi system in no time: check for your modem, restart it, check that your cable is intact, reset it. Next best might be contacting support or your ISP. If the problem still persists after resetting Linksys Velop.
