The default software in a new DigiConnectME module blinks the orange LED when there is network activity.
When I use my own software the orange led is always on. How can I restore the original blinking functionality?

I’m already using:
#define BSP\_WANT\_ETHERNET\_ACTIVITY\_LED TRUE
But the LED doesn’t work, it’s always on.

The green LED blinks with network activity. At least on mine. The amber LED stays on when theres a cable plugged in.
Are you using the second serial port? I just had a similar problem.
