Sure Signal not working

Hello

 

My Sure Signsl V1 stopped working last weekend for no apparent reason.  It had just button 1 on.  It had been working perfectly fine up until then.

 

I have tried several factory resets - it appears to be going through the correct setup sequence - various lights flashing on and off - but never finishes, even after leaving for 48 hours.

 

I have tried rebooting my router several times.

 

Last night, I deregistered and reregistered the Sure Signal.  This morning, it still appears to be going through the startup sequence.

 

Internet speed is: download 5.5 Mbps, upload 0.38 Mbps

 

Please can you advise?  S/N is 21223154747

Hi,

I 'm fairly sure that you need to replace your power supply.

Your symptoms are typical of lack of power.

 

Replacement power supplies are readily available from Amazon or Ebay and cost around £10 or less.

Just search for "Sure Signal power supplies"

 

Further info on the symptoms can be found here :......

New power supply installed...... and working! Many thanks!

Hi Mike

I'm having the same issues with my SureSignal.  It's stopped working and top light glows constantly and the light below that just flashes.  No other light working.  I have tried re-booting etc but to no avail.  I noticed (on another post) that you suggested that the power supply may not be working properly.   Should I just buy another power supply?  They are relatively cheap.

Thanks 

Chris

Hi Laura

Thanks for your reply.  What is a traceroute and how do I do it with a Mac?
