Flashing lights

Hi All
my network setup is as follows:
Hub One with wifi enabled & pc wired on port 1
network mains plug (no wifi) on port 2 of Hub One
Front room has 3 port network mains plug (no wifi) with TG582n conected
TG582n has IP outside of Hub One DHCP range and has DHCP off.
Recently I've noticed that the activity lights on both the n/w plugs have been flashing continuously. Ive turned everything off except the the 2 routers and made sure no wireless devices are connected but the only way to stop this "activity" is turn off wifi on the 582. I have also tried a Hub Zero in place of the 582 but that also flashes continuously even with wifi off.
Has anyone had similar experience or know if it could be affecting n/w performance and could it be because something is trying to connect to wifi? I have an Xbox 360 connected to the same plug as the 582 which we use for Netflix and sometimes it buffers and bombs out every 10 minutes or so even tho we have around 37mbps connection.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Hi,
My setup is similar to yours and yes the lights flash as well. Nothing to worry about its just the Hub One and the 582n keeping the TCP connection established, know as keep alives.
