VSS3 flashing red power light, internet light off, other 2 lights solid orange.

 

Has not worked for several months.

Have tried reseting it.  De-register and re-registering.  Different ethernet cable, different router port.  Router shows it is connected to it and has been assigned an IP via DHCP.

 

Speed test results:

Ping 5ms

Down 48.24Mbps
Up 7.19Mbps

 

IP: 86.149.78.216

Hi a few things observed. My router apppears not to see the VSS adapter. If i look at the client list I can see my laptop, PC upstairs partners laptop and mobile phones. It does not show the MAC address of the VSS adapter.I this normal?. Are there any better instructions out there to get these adapters to work with my Belkin router and Virgin media broadband?, as at present its a £69 piece of junk.
PS Sorry for jumping into this thread.

@Big-Gee I can see it's registered successfully, please take a look at the below instructions for further help:

 

  • Unplug the Ethernet cable from the Sure Signal
  • Locate the button on the base of the box next to the Ethernet ports
  • Press and hold the button for approximately 30 seconds
  • Once the lights come back on, release the button
  • Plug the cable back in
  • Allow around one hour for the Sure Signal to come back online.

 

@leejordan I can see that your Sure Signal’s also recently spoken to our Network, please can you also follow the instructions above .

The lights dont go off until you release the reset button, I've tried your way & they wont go out whilst holding the button.

My V2 worked fine so why is the V3 a real pain for loads of vodafone customers? I'm wishing I saved the £70 & moved to another network now :Sad_face:

Hi,

 

I have the same problem. The lights don't go out until after I release the button. Situation still the same.

 

Lee

Hi Tech Team,

Do you have any update on this problem please? Your suggestion did not work.

Thanks

Lee
