Are you trying to get to the Asus router's web interface while connected to the T3200M? That won't work. You need to connect to the Asus router directly using one of the LAN ports on the Asus router.

If I connect directly to asus lan and access asus web interface, would asus wan light turn white? Isn't it connection between asus wan (should be white light) and telus lan established first before accessing asus web interface? Thanks.

- teloos6 years agoOrganizerHi xray, I connected pc directly to asus and did the setup process as you mentioned but still the same, initially asus wan lights up white and then turns red. Did asus factory reset nothing. I even unplugged telus t3200 and connected asus rt-ac86u directly to internet and same thing, first wan light is white and then red. Does this mean hardware issue? Or something else? Thanks.
