Hi @suntek

 

It appears that the latest Firmware hasn’t reached your Vodafone Sure Signal.

 

I’ve had this sent through again for you.

 

Please leave the device plugged in and turned on for 24 hours.

 

As Sukhi has advised before once this time period has elapsed, reset the phone and the Vodafone Sure Signal.

 

Cheers,

 

Laura

Hi

 

To cut a long story short, my SureSignal v3 stopped working after many months of solid service, and when I checked it appeared that my account had gotten confused with which sure signal it was associated with (my account was associated with a sure signal serial number different to my current one).  I am guessing that somehow my account got re-associated with an old sure signal - which I no longer own.

 

Anyway, I deregistered this "old" sure signal, and then went to register my current sure signal - with serial number 40134610894.

 

However, I've tried to register this sure signal several times in the last few times and each time the vodafone website states that it can't register the sure signal and that I should try again later.

 

So I want to register my sure signal with serial number 40134610894 to my account.  Please can you help?

 

Thank you

Hi,
Sorry for jumping on a thread, but I am pulling out what little hair I have left...
I have power and system light, but no 3G on devices (iPhone 6 and Nokia Lumia 635). The 'Phone Connected' indicator remains off during calls on any registered devices.
I have tried, over the last few hours: Using UPNP, complete port forwarding and placing the VSS in the DMZ of MediaHub2 Router, to no avail.

@MrShort – The info you’ve provided is showing some very high results.

 

Please do another traceroute and if this shows figures over 200ms again, you’ll need to contact your ISP to see if there’s anything they can do.

 

If the results are lower, please paste them here and we can look into this further.

Hi,
I have tried attaching this to a running thread, but no replies, so attempting here...

 

Also tried Live help, spent two hours on the phone then old to wait for a call, which never happenned. This can't be rocket science, I think I need a re-sync as even with no firewall on hub there's no 3G on devices.

Mi Mrshort

 

Im sure one of the Forum Team will be along soon to force a resync for you but i highly doubt that will fix your issue.

 

From looking at the Internet details you provided your upload/download look fine but you traceroute shows some issues with your connection from hop 8 onwards. Each hop is over 100ms with some over 300ms...this will be causing timeouts when establishing the secure VPN tunnel that the Sure Signal needs to work.

 

I would suggest sharing the information with Virgin Media and seeing if they can help resolve this issue,

 

Thanks

John

 

 

Cheers Fanboy,
Still no response from Sure Signal team, was waiting for a call back for six hours before giving up for the day.

I'll pass on the traceroute info to VM, but was under the impression that the hops taking excessive time were out of the remit for ISP... Interesting that you think it could be resolved by them...

I really would like to be told whether any activity can be seen on the servers; at the simplest stage here I have hardware Firewall turned off and can't leave it like this forever!

Thanks for the reply, hopefully someone from Vodafone is reading.

Hi MrShort,

The reason for the poor result on your traceroute is because you entered the wrong destination address and finished up in South Korea :smileysurprised: 

https://db-ip.com/112.188.149.74

 

The correct address is 212.183.133.177 ......... You entered  121.183.133.177

Could you retry the tracroute with the correct IP address please.

 

Regards

My sure signal is working fine with my mobile number.  I can't add another though.  I registered it years ago, and I've had recent messages asking me to update location, even though I've not moved anywhere, but I have changed to new BT high speed router.  Only option under "Manage" is to Register it, but already done.  Please advise - I need to add new Vodafone numbers urgently.

Thanks
