Hello,

 

I have recently upgraded to infinity. For the first few hours my sure signal worked fine, since then it has stopped working and I am unable to get it back online.

 

Currently I have just the top green light flashing.

I get constant green and flashing orange leds by the ethernet cable connection.

I can see the SureSignal on my network.

 

My setup:

I have BT infinity with 5 static IP adresses. The suresignal is assigned to one of those IP addresses.

 

1. Vodafone Sure Signal V1 (VSS) connected to Ethernet port 2 of BT Home hub 3 (BHH3).

2. BHH3 connected to BT VDSL Modem (BVM)

 

My stats:

Speed test:

Ping:31ms Down: 20.66Mbps Up: 3.62Mbps

 Ping test:

 B* Ping: 35ms Jitter: 5ms Packet loss: Unable to test

 SureSignal Serial

253264385

 SureSignal IP:

81.143.31.253 (Static IP)

 Things I have tried:

 

1. Opened ports TCP: 8, 50 & 1723; UDP 123, 500, & 4500

2. Put SureSignal on DMZ

3. Restarted both BHH3 and SureSignal in a variety of orders.

4. Deregistered VSS and re registered.

5. Replaced the cables between VSS & BHH3

6. Factory reset the BHH3

7. Factory reset the VSS (*See below)

[edit]

Also enabled port clamping

Cannot set MTU above 1492 as that is the max allowed by BHH3

 

Factory reset instructions:

1. Hold down the reset button until all the lights show/flash (about 30 seconds)

2. Keeping the reset button held down, remove then re-insert the power lead

3. Once all the lights display, release the reset button

4. The Sure Signal will come online in about an hour

 

For me, holding the reset button, after a while, the lights flash in turn, top to bottom.

Next I remove power and re-insert it.

Again after a while the lights flash in turn, top to bottom.

 

I assume this is a reset, but the instructions describe "all the lights show/flash" which is a little different.

 

What else do I try?

 

Could someone from vodafone force a resync please.

 

Many thanks

 

Tom

Thanks Dave,

 

Sure signal is now 2 years and 2 months old, so no longer under warranty.

 

Any chance of getting it fixed?

 

I guess I'll be buying a new one - let's hope the new one works.

 

 

Hi thcousins

 

If it's out of warranty we can get it fixed but there is a repair charge. We wouldn't be able to waive it unfortunately. 

 

Hopefully a new one should work for you though.

 

Thanks

 

Simon
