No the modem/router wouldn't care that the ATV doesn't have any status lights. So the ATV works fine even though the light is red? Have you checked the light when you have the ATV on and playing?

No, the ATV works fine. I wonder whether the red light (which is on the device side, not the cable side - apologies for confusing that) may be due to the ATV's not having status lights at all. Maybe ethernet is complaining about the absence?> I'm laying ethernet cable to my Apple TV, because wifi's not been reliable enough. When I connect the Time-Warner router/modem to the ATV, the ethernet cable light at the modem end that should be green turns red. The signal seems fine - the connection seems solid and consistent - but that red light bothers me. When I connect the same cable to my PC, the light's green, so it's not a bad cable.

Could it just be that the Apple TV is still "asleep" ?
