Ok i live in a bad spot for Vodafone the phones mainly work when i am on the third floor of the house with varying levels of reception when i go down to the second floor or ground floor receiving or making phone calls becomes a bit of a lottery. as i spend a great deal of time working from home this causes a major problem. I have purchased a shure signal 2 and on visual inspection it appears to be working correctly as the lights on the front are doing the correct things the router can see it and to make shure I have given it a fixed ip internally and manually opened the ports to said ip. Ok so far so good. If I leave the premises and return there seems to be a problem with the phones re linking or syncing with the shure signal 2 unit. Restarting the unit or restarting the phones or both has no effect. It only connects when it feels like it and is totally random, when connected it can drop the call during the conversation. I have explored all the possibilities mentioned on this forum but to no avail. I have done a tracert as suggested and here are the results.All other suggested ips for the trace return the same results
