My PetSafe® Guardian® GPS Connected Customizable Fence Base Has a Solid Red Light
A solid red light on the base indicates the base does not have an internet connection. Don't worry, your containment system will still work using the last saved settings. However, to update your boundary or change any settings, you'll need to reconnect the base to the internet.
Confirm your internet is currently working by checking other devices for a signal.
- Place the collar(s) next to the 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 3-10 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 GHz 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 GHz band. Contact your internet provider or the router manufacturer for assistance.
