Problem I am having is the VSS3 has powerlight solid, pulsing / flasing internet and nothing else... been like this for a while, not getting a signal on my phone.
I have tried resetting the VSS and also deregistering and reregistering the VSS.
Please help as the phone is useless at home.

Sure Signal Ser No:
40132326709
It is wired up properly (etherrnet cable correctly plugged in and there is obvioulsy data being passed between the VSS and Router as the green light is on and yellow light flashes (on the ethernet ports connecting the 2 devices). and it previously worked great.

The fix for me was to assign an internal static IP address for the suresignal through the router then 'Port Forward' TCP/UDP ports as required by SureSignal to the allocated/reserved internal IP address!
If using DHCP.. Any router firmware upgrade will effectively render the SureSignal inop again unless the above process followed as resets all the firewall rules/services
Contact me for specifics on this and I'll be more than happy to assist!
Ensure that your Sure Signal device is assigned to a fixed static IP address on your router’s network and that IP address should be assigned to Sure Signal device’s MAC address (the sure signal MAC address is written on the back of the sure signal device)
The maximum connection MTU size to guarantee the connection is 1500
Port Protocol Type
8 TCP UDP
50 TCP UDP
