AWS Monitron Ethernet Gateway hung on 'connecting to internet' page

0

When commissioning an Ethernet gateway after connecting via bluetooth, I am stuck on the 'connecting to internet' page and go no further. Tried resetting the gateway, cycling power etc to no avail. I have the same problem with all 4 ethernet gateways on site.

If your Amazon Monitron Ethernet gateway is stuck on the "connecting to internet" page during commissioning, here are several troubleshooting steps to try:

  1. Check your network configuration:
  • Verify that the Ethernet cable is properly connected to the gateway
  • Confirm your network is functioning correctly
  • Check with your IT administrator about any firewall settings that might be blocking the gateway's connection
  1. Verify the gateway's LED status:
  • A solid green light indicates the gateway is powered on
  • A flashing orange light (slow) means the gateway is attempting to connect to the Ethernet network
  • A flashing orange light (1 fast/1 slow) indicates the gateway is connected to the Ethernet network but is trying to connect to the Amazon Monitron backend system
  1. Perform a proper factory reset:
  • Unplug the Ethernet cable from the gateway
  • Hold down the Config button
  • Plug the Ethernet cable back into the gateway
  • Release the Config button when the LED lights start slowly blinking, alternating orange and blue
  1. For iOS devices:
  • If you've previously paired with these gateways, make your device "forget" the gateway before attempting to re-pair
  1. Ensure the gateway is in proper configuration mode:
  • When in commissioning mode, the Bluetooth and Network LED lights should blink rapidly, alternating orange and blue
  • If the LEDs show any other sequence, reset the gateway using the Reset button

Since you're experiencing this issue with all four gateways, it's likely a network configuration issue. Consider checking if there are any network restrictions or if the gateways need manual IP configuration rather than automatic DHCP.
