v1 Sure Signal stopped after being OK for several years

My v1 isn't working. I am not getting any 3G signal.
It first went out about 6 weeks ago, after several trouble-free years.  
A Vodafone support person did a remote reset during a Live Chat a few weeks ago. I have done lots of hard resets myself. 

I have changed the Etnernet cable, ethernet port on the modem (Home Hub 5) and swapped to a brand new HH5 modem.
I have had Openreach do lots of line checks, all successful. Average Download is 20Mbps, upload is 0.75Mbps
SerialNo. 21197107622

At first I was getting a variety of blinking patterns. Now all 4 lights are on permanently.

Hi

 

 

It maybe worth trying a different power supply with the SureSignal (Version 1 & 2 ), as there have been some reports of replacement power supplies solving the issues. Even if lights / power are showing. They are available on eBay for around £10.

 

From member cineriv "But firstly, have a look around for a suitable unit with a 12 Volt output @ around 1.5Amp capacity that you could 'borrow' to prove the fault. Suitable units can be found on external hard drives, monitors, printers, routers etc.etc."

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I did that already having read it on other replies. It made no difference.
