I am not sure why you need to plug the Sure Signal unit in a Gb switch if the switch is close to the router

Linux

PoHq: Because I'm out of LAN ports on router.

Makes sense

What happens if you switch the data connection on the phone off first and then switch on the wifi?

I'm guessing the phone sets up a data session with the sure signal but when you switch on the wifi, it drops the data connection (and therefore the overall connection) to the sure signal.

Yes I know that 3G has separate voice and data "parts" but intrigued to see what the handset does under these conditions.

See if you can force the phone to sit on 3g under the network settings (ie not to move to 2g or 4g) and try again?

How about moving the SS as far away as you can from the wifi router. Give that a go

I actually tried that last night, I plugged the SureSignal into a LAN port in the lounge as far away from the router in the garage as I could get and still no joy.

Appreciate the reply though thanks.

Can you try with a cable in the port that works on the router.  Just use the cable that came with it and move it as far away as you can. The cable is about a meter long. If that still fails see the PM i sent you
