After the ADSL indicator stops blinking, ADSL indicators turn solid on, which indicates that the is working properly.
I'm not sure what it is meant with "solid"?
(not just blinking but remains on)

Selected
the light indicator is on continuously, not intermittently
With DSL when the light indicators turn on, initially they are intermittent of tend to "blink" if you will, until they quit blinking and are on solidly or contuously.

lights up without blinking
Indicator lights have three basic states:

On and not blinking ("solid on"!)
