How to Troubleshoot a Flashing Red Light on the Guardian® GPS Connected Customizable Fence Base Unit

A flashing red light on the base unit indicates the base unit is unable to connect to the Wi-Fi network.

Confirm your internet is currently working by checking other devices for a signal.

• Place the collar(s) next to your base unit.
• If your base unit is the only device affected: perform a soft reset to your base unit by pressing and holding the multi-purpose button for 3-5 seconds. This will reset the unit’s Wi-Fi module but will retain your Wi-Fi credentials.
• If your base unit is not the only device affected: perform a reset to your Wi-Fi router.

Confirm your base unit is connected to a 2.4 MHz Wi-Fi band.

• Eliminating any Wi-Fi extenders and mesh networks may be necessary.
• If the base unit is connected to a dual-band router, it may be necessary to separate the Wi-Fi bands, so the base unit is connected only to the 2.4 MHz band. Contact your internet provider or the router manufacturer for assistance.
