Greetings
My sure signal [V1] stopped working. We had some electrical work done. After numerous resets I decided to buy a new one [V3] This also will not connect. The power light is on but the second light just flashes on and off. I have tried Vodafone help but my hearing is defective and I could not understand much of what was said. I did understand 're-boot' which I did but to no avail. They suggested changing the sure signal box but surely I do not have two defective devices.
The electrician has checked all the work he has done and assures me that it is not the problem but believes the fault lies with Vodafone. Please can you help as I am without mobile coverage.
Solved! Go to best answer.

Hi Shuki
Thank you for the reply to my problem.
I will reply fully later.
I have a Mac, please can you alter the PC information for me.
I did do most of the sure signal trouble shooting before I registered for the forum.
Thank you

@AndreaAmati - There have been a number of resets on your Sure Signal in the past few days. The lights that are showing mean that it is being configured, so please leave it connected for 24 hours.

Thank you for replying.
My Sure Signal has now been connected 'untouched' for 28 hours. Where now?

@AndreaAmati - There was a resync done at 12.38pm today, so the 24 hours to allow for the activation and updates would start from that time. Let us know how it is tomorrow to allow for that time to pass.
