My Vera 3 is no longer working?

Try to access it and I get a message that it cannot load with some options for firmware download or tech support. Any ideas?

I should add the I have my power light and wan lights green. but I cannot get access to the unit

Is your vera unit assigned a static ip or an ip via dhcp? Check to make sure the ip has not changed. Also issue a ping on the ip to make sure that vera responds.

i can ping it and it responds. but for some reason still fails to load the gui
static ip

If a power cycle has not resolved the issue, head over here:

You may want to look over the instructions and see if that can fix your issue. I had a similar issue last week when I did a firmware change and the unit would not load the gui, but could be pinged and accessed via ssh. I did the instructions in the above thread and it got my unit back up.

So I ended up restoring the firmware which wiped everything. Trying a restore and each backup file I try it returns an error on not being able to uncompress.
any ideas

How big is the backup file?

153kb

When you restored the firmware, are you on the same firmware as the backups were on? Hopefully others can chime in.

yes
