Brand New Sure Signal V3 and Still Issues

abr

My new Sure Signal only works effectively in the same room as the router.  I have a small modern house with thin walls and plenty of windows and my internet speed has been checked and there are no issues.  In the same room the number of bars falls to 4 a few feet away.  Walking into the next room reduces the number of bars to 3 and upstairs it is two or less.  I have full internet in these rooms. The Vodafone store suggested changing the Sure Signal which I did and still have the same issues.  I have had several long discussions with the Tech team who have responded as follows: 

 

 

' I managed to speak to the support team and they have met this a few times before and found a solution, or more like a Cause for the issue and that is or would be a device that interferes with the sure signal cellular connection. If no other devices are in the room or the house With strong radiation would be doing this, it would then be the router being close enough to the box then to make a distance between the router and the sure signal, no less than a meter long if possible. Try the above and it will definitley make it, Thanks'

 

I have tried moving the Sure Signal as suggested and ensured it is close to the router - it has to be anyway as the lead is short.  The router is connected to a Smart TV but there is only occasional internet use by wireless ipad and laptop apart from that.  I understand from other people with a similar issue that the frequency can be changed and am desparate to resolve this issue so I have a phone signal in every room.   I have replied to the above e-mail stating this but have not received an answer.

I have also been told that the quality of sound is bad using the Sure Signal although fine from my end. The Sure Signal often needs to be reset as it goes off line regularly.

 

I have checked some of the settings as follows:  Ping 20ms; Download: 4.97Mbps; Upload: 1.08Mbps  The serial number is 40133468690.  Can someone from the Tech team get back to me asap on these issues?     Thanks

I can see the MAC number on the plug but as it is a mix of letters and numbers I need confirmation whether the O's used are zero's or the letter O.  Can you please confirm?  The number is:  BO46FCAOOB8D

 

I also need the IP address of the Sure Signal so the internet provider can identify and make sure the router ports are opened as per the earlier forum message from your team.  

 

This is now very urgent and is taking an unacceptable time to resolve.  I have also tried calling via customer services and am being pushed round in circules without resolution.  I have done everything possible to resolve the issue and am still at square one.

Hi abr,

 

I can confirm that they are the letter O’s.

 

In regards to your IP address this is on your local network.

 

To find devices connected to your local area network, you’ll need to log onto your router.

 

Thanks,
