Jenny,

Thank you so much for the reply, but...

There is a single problem to carrying out the reset.

As I stated previously the unit is not powering on, so there are no lights, no functionality, nothing.

I've tried plugging it in and pressing the reset button but that has has no effect.

For your infomation, when I brought the unit to the Vodafone shop (that I menioned previously) they too plugged it in with the same negitive result.

Regards

Peter

Hi Peter,
I have just tried this and after holding down the reset button for 30 seconds I now have a flashing red light and the yellow 'phone image' now lit up, not sure if this is going to resolve my issue, but certainly worth trying. (I had previously held down the reset button, but not for the 30 seconds recommended)
Regards,
Leon.

Thanks Leon,

Alas - I have tried that, and just tried again for good measure.  My finger gets sore holding the button down...

No its totally dead...

For clear illustration purposes [for the Vodafone people] please find attached a photo.

As can be seen the unit is getting power and passing to the forward power socket.

But there are no power lights, or anythign from the actual VSS unit as far as network connection go and 3G repeating.

Sigh...

P

Still the same situation this morning with a flashing red power light and a solid orange phone image on the far right, does this need re-syncing at the v/f end!

Leon
