Sure Signal v3 not connecting to phones

fishcallededdie
4: Newbie

Hi - we have Sure Signal v3. For the last couple of days we've had no signal on our phones from the Sure Signal.

 

Lights 1-3 are all on/steady. The fourth light (phone connected) is dead.

 

Tried all the usual stuff like restarting Sure Signal, router, internet etc.

 

On the website (My Sure Signal), it says that the device is active and still has all users registered. 

 

Nobody at Vodafone is available until Tuesday, which means I will have no phone signal for 3 days. 

 

Anyone got any troubleshooting help they can offer?

 

Thanks!

Hi

 

Please take a look through these Sure Signal Trouble Shooting threads :

 

https://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Vodafone-Sure-Signal/Vodafone-Sure-Signal-troubleshooting/td-p/23917...

as these may help to resolve issues. They have links to the key things you can do to try and self resolve the issue you are experiencing.

 

There is an option entitled 'Issue not Listed' where you can run a traceroute and post your results back here. 

 

I've also read that if a person turns off 4g in the phones settings to force 3g this can help too.

@fishcallededdie Thank you for providing us with those details.

 

I can see that your Sure Signal made contact with our server on 1 January at 8pm. Please can you let us know if you're continuing to experience any issues?

Thanks Natasha.

 

Well, a marginal improvement…

 

Of the 4 phones in our house:

 

2 have no signal at all

1 has a single bar (probably connected to the regular mast)

 

and one phone has 5 bars and works perfectly. If we dial out using that phone, then the 4th light on the Sure Signal lights up.

 

So one phone is connected to the Sure Signal, and 3 are not.

 

What other ideas do you have?

 

Thank you.

@fishcallededdie I've resynced your Sure Signal device to refresh your services on our server. 

The resyncronisation should update and refresh all the mobile devices registered to your Sure Signal. 

Please allow 6 hours for your Sure Signal to obtain a connection and to start working again. 

Let us know how you get on. 

OK Thank you. It has been erratic since Christmas. Yesterday I had no signal on my phone in the evening but I did have a signal this morning. I will have a look again this evening. Cheers

@fishcallededdie Has the resync helped resolve the issue?

Thank you Rahim - it's been stable for the past 2 or 3 days.

 

Fingers crossed

 

Thanks again


James
