    Re: BLINKING MESSAGE LIGHT upss said"Press and hold for about 15 seconds the "find handset" button on the base of the Uniden phone and that should clear the Voicemail LED. You can read about it in the Uniden user's manual." Thanks for the tip. What page was that on? tomtrike

    BLINKING MESSAGE LIGHT I've been having a problem with my message light on the Uniden DCT 646 phones that came with SR. After clearing the VOICEMAIL calls on my account the light keeps blinking. I even unplugged the Gizmo and the Uniden base. Still have the blink. Any ideas. tomtrike

    laketrout said:Was there any behind the scenes words about if this will become "the" next gizmo or is it a special order for special folks? I think that all you have to do is say your gizmo is slowing down your downloads. everyone at the help line seems to know about it. One guy on the...

    astrosfan90 tom, you notice any differences in speed or anything new about this new gizmo? tomtrike: Looks the same, but this time it works. Same fast download speed. georgpa:I wondered about the time it took. If it is a gizmo replacement that is usually an overnighter with SR...

    More on my Gizmo loss of VOIP light. I finally heard from SR Engineering. Seems someone had closed my repair ticket by mistake. A Gizmo had not been shipped as I thought. They were thinking of the first shipment earlier this month. So I will be receiving one soon. I guess we should ask for...

    Finally today I called SR again to find out what is happening with my service request of 1/21/06. She said a new Gizmo was sent out to me today. I am disappointed that I did not hear from them since the 23rd. When your phone is out of order you must know how long it will be till it's fixed...

    georgepa- I seem to be ok now. VOIP light has been on steady since the firmware update. Calls have been stable. SR service suggested setting the DLR at 90K less than the slowest upload speed noted. I'm glad to see that you suggest the exact upload spec from my ISP. I'd hate to set it at...

    More on my dropped calls. I was in contact with the help desk in the Phillipines today. A tech named Jeff said that I needed a firmware update on the Innomedia Gizmo. He immediately sent it and I saw the "Run" led indicate the download by turning orange for a few minutes, then back to green...

    quote: After a initial problem with the gizmo not syncing, I called and found that they had my account set up with the wrong MAC number. RideFree: "One can only assume that the "wrong MAC# was the MAC address for the old Gizmo." I had actually received two new Gizmos. I elected to use...
