What is that Beacon? and what does it mean if it is blinking?

i've heard some say it's if your in a dogfight, but my wingmans beacon was blinking when he was coming to land and there was no cons anywhere.

also i've heard it means your flying over the dar, and can be seen on map. this one seems to be the most reasonable explanation of what it could be.

so i thought to find out for sure i should take it to the experts and consult the great wisdom held within the forums.



bestow upon me your vast knowledge...plz

The beacon lights up when your connection to the server is bad.
21 is only half the truth.

If someone says your warping, right click on the map on the clipboard and select "net statice". If your "beacon" light is blinking your connection is really bad
