Re: Sure Signal - "Call Failed" error when making Outbound calls

I have the same problem.  Not possible to make outgoing calls.

 

It has been erratic in the past, but now never works.  Have had the line checked by ISP.

 

Old box, lights 1,2 and 4 on permanently.

 

Other maybe linked problem, if using internet via 3G, it always places me somewhere in North London.

 

Regards

Re: Sure Signal - "Call Failed" error when making Outbound calls

Ben,

 

I have 3 SS units 2 old style and 1 new style ,the new style is only days old and reacts the same as the older units, serial numbers listed below

 

21221762376 old type 4 lights

 

21222167211 old type 4 lights

 

40120124257 new type 2 lights

 

All three have the same problem "call failed" message on the I Phone 3GS and the call rings but fails to connect

 

I have spoken to no less than 10 representatives of VF, including 4 Supervisors, and 3 technical representatives in the last 10 days I have been told most of the things listed in this thread and many more besides,  funnily enough all of them point to it being mine or my modem, or my service providers fault, yet 2 weeks ago the units were functioning OK if not perfectly and I have changed nothing.

 

I have wasted hours on the phone, am paying for a service which has ceased to function, been lied to and  generally treated like a mushroom, kept in the dark and fed, I don't need to put this part do I !!

 

I had been informed I was the only person with this problem until I found this thread, why can't your support staff tell the truth we all have problems.

 

As a result of my treatment from VF I shall look to close my account and find a company that has respect for its customers.

Re: Sure Signal - "Call Failed" error when making Outbound calls

James, Lee and team,

 

Thank you for attending to this incident promptly and efficiently.

You kept me informed at each stage of the analysis and fix.

You reset/refreshed the SAC yesterday and i confirm the sure signal is now working without issue in my office.

 

Excellent outcome.

Please do reference the apple airport extreme settings i shared earlier if required.

I'm aware that a number of users have reported problems interfacing the sure signal and airport extreme.

I confirm there is no inherent conflict.

Simply set a fixed LAN IP for the sure signal and then setup the required TCP and UDP port forwards to that address.

 

 

regards

Reggie Samuel

Re: Sure Signal - "Call Failed" error when making Outbound calls

I also have the same issue as the people above.

 

Sure signal light sequence looks OK.

 

My HTC  has full 3G signal when sure signal is on.

Outgoing call on HTC  = call failed.

Outgoing SMS/message = OK

Incoming call on HTC = OK

Incoming SMS/message = OK

 

 

This is possibly a Sure Signal SAC Issue.

Please can you assist?

Hi zzang,

 

Thanks for your post.

 

The issue which you are describing indicates that you are having an issue with the SAC (service area code) which needs to be updated.

 

So that we can do this for you I have sent you a quick PM, please follow the instructions on the PM and one of the team can get this requested for you.

 

You can find your PM inbox here.

Yesterday, I had to de-register my daughter's HTC Desire as she was unable to make calls while registered.
