Red Ethernet light blinking in sets of fourRed (Ethernet) light is blinking 1 time only within 30 seconds of being plugged in

This means that no Ethernet cable is attached to the Gateway.

  1. Make sure cable is attached or try another cable
  2. Do you have a Router?
    • Make sure Router is turned on and Gateway cable is attached to it
  3. Power cycle Gateway
    1. Unplug the a/c cord from the gateway for 10 seconds.
    2. Do Not touch the grey gateway button.
    3. Plug the a/c cord into the gateway.
  4. Factory reset (after deleted from the website).
    1. Unplug the a/c power for 10 seconds. Press and Hold the grey button on the gateway before plugging the a/c power in again.
    2. Continue to hold the grey button for 30 seconds after inserting the a/c cord.
    3. The red (Ethernet) light will come on after about 10 seconds, then go off for about 10 seconds, then come back on again.
    4. At that time you can release the grey button. Please note that we are not concerned about the green (RF) light at this time.
    • Within 30 seconds the Red (Ethernet) light should be flashing in sets of 4 blinks, pause, 4 blinks pause, etc.
    • If it takes longer then 30 seconds to get to 4 blinks there is a connection issue and the gateway will not register.
    • Please note the gateway will automatically go to 4 blinks (a default IP addresses) if given enough time.

If the power cycle and/or factory reset do not bring the red gateway light to 4 blinks, please contact Technical Support 608-785-7935 or support@weatherdirect.com .
