Red Ethernet light blinking in sets of four

Red (Ethernet) light blinking in sets of 4 within 30 seconds of being plugged in

  • Your Gateway is behaving normally and is ready to be registered with the Weather Direct® servers.
    • Technically, this means the gateway has an IP address and has found our server (box.weatherdirect.com).

  • If you cannot register your gateway, the gateway may need to be factory reset.

    Note: If you have previously registered the gateway you must delete the display and gateway from your Weather Direct account.

    Factory Reset
    • 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.
    • Continue to hold the grey button for 30 seconds after inserting the a/c cord.
    • The red (Ethernet) light will come on after about 10 seconds, then go off for about 10 seconds, then come back on again.
    • 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.
