Vera Lite DOA after firmware update

I just got my Vera Lite today and through the setup process I flashed the firmware as requested. The unit now will not connect to the network (network light just flashes). When I change to a static IP (192.168.81.100) I can ping and browse to a web page on the unit that says the firmware update failed. There is a link that takes me to a logon with root as the username. Unfortunately I don’t know the password. I have tried the Firmware Recovery tool and it doesn’t find any network adapters. When I try to TFTP it says the server is not responding. I’ve contacted support (via the form), but of course since it’s the weekend I assume I won’t hear anything until at least Monday.

Any ideas? I’d like to get this thing up and running this weekend if possible.

Just an update. I was impressed. I got an email reply and called tech support at 7am-ish ET. The tech support had me up and running in just a few minutes after ssh’ing in. I was impressed by the quick reply on a Monday morning and even happier that my unit is now up and running!

I have the same problem, after firmware upgrade all I can get is the network light fluttering

Have tried the following with no results.

  1. change ethernet cables
  2. change IP adress to 192.168.0.10
  3. Tried plug Vera Lite into router directly
  4. Plugged Veralite ethernet cable into TP-Link wr702n portable router set to client mode
  5. Plug ethernet cable directly into port on laptop running on win7

Before upgrade I did get the unit to talk from laptop to veralite through portable router

what can I do to make this work?
