I installed a replacement linksys wireless router wrv54g. When windows xp
loads desktop, my green light on LAN port turn to amber. System seems to
function properly but cannot correct the amber light. Has anyone experienced
this problem?

That's just the color of the light on that particular router. My Linksys
Wireless-G access point has an amber light for LAN, too.

I don't believe that is correct.
The light is green before windows desktop loads. In addition, the previous
same model router had a green light during operation..

Well, my light is amber and my network has been working perfectly for
over a year and the colors match up to what is specified in the manual
for my device. If your device is different and your manual says the
light should be green, contact Linksys tech support for advice as to
what is wrong and for a possible replacement.

I had this problem and it actually went to red. Discussion with techs
revealed that plugging in the router first and then the modem or vice versa
is the problem. Simply unplug both from the wall, then plug the router in
first followed by the modem. If that fails, unplug both from the wall, plug
in the modem first followed by the router. One of these two worked for my
system.
