Blinking LEDs - OK or Problem?

fide

New Around Here
My new Netgear RAX - wifi6, 1800 - seems to be working (ethernet and/or wifi), but the activity with the LEDs concerns me. This model has 4 lights on the front panel:
1) power connection: continuous green when on
2)internet: flashes / "blinks" green when connected
3) wifi: continuous green when activated
4) ethernet: flashes / "blinks" green when one or more ethernet ports are connected.

My question: is this normal? OK? or is this a problem? My previous tp-link router I don't think did this.
 
Yes it's normal. The led's blink in response to traffic your connection is generating.
 
Thank you, Analog-1, and you Ripshod, for your agreement. It was a simple question, but the grief I went through, through the AI's and links included in the box, took literally hours and by then my confidence in the manufacturer's System had degraded quite a bit. Thank you.
