My Fing has been working flawlessly for almost 2 years.  Today I noticed that it was offline.  power cycle does not work to get it back.  I finally do a reset and it starts to blink rapidly with white led and then settles to white.  I do a power cycle and it comes back after a few minutes to a solid red.  Iv'e turned off ipv6.  I've changed cables.  Fing hooked directly to router.  I cannot add a Fingto the network.  No fing shows up on a scan.  Internet is functioning.  Only device not working is Fing.  Any help appreciated.

    I accidentally hit yes as an answer when I shouldn't have.

    Hi @MrByte, I have checked and can confirm that an e-mail was sent to the e-mail address associated with your Fing Community account requesting further details to investigate further. Can you check your e-mail (maybe check spam/junk also) to ensure you receieved it? (and if so, please respond from the e-mail). Thanks
