If your system were hit by lightening the unit circuit board and circuits would show visible signs of burning. If there are no visible signs of surge then the unit is probably and it took neither a direct or indirect hit. Just test it by inserting it between your router and another Ethernet device like a PC or printer. If it doesn't work, then as you suspect, and indirect hit may have possibly damaged the unit. Again there are usually visible signs of damage from any large Pulses such as a indirect hit as the unit electronics are very sensitive.

In my installation if I had a signal from one router through the outgoing surge protector then through the 335 feet of underground cable into the other surge protector and into the other router, i would say I am good-to-go---no further tests needed.

Short answer: No, I don't know for certainLong Answer: I have a number of these units in play, and when they have taken a hit, they typically blow and cease passing signal. So while I can't be certain, I think if they passing data they are good to go.

I have several suggestions; please check the date on the device. Note that the replacement time is about 10 years. One other problem we had was insects, specifically ants, nesting in the rafters, down in the alarm base. Vacuumed them out, everything worked fine. Reinsert battery, checking for firm settling. Best of luck.

Well i have a for instance for u. I had a brand new, shiny one installed on my tablet when my frisky kitten bit the corner of my tablet in play and left a bite mark on the shield. Stuff happens. I didn't replace it because it was at the edge of my screen and didn't impact my view, but was good to have the spare in case &#128512;

Hi, I am not really all that sure either, because so far I have never had any issues with anything. I went onto their website and activated my plan coverage. But I am guessing that if something goes wrong with the PC and we contact them, it is possible that they might be able to contact a technician in our area. And have them come to our home in order to resolve issues, or maybe cover any needed repairs, etc. But I am not exactly sure how it works.

you might go into your settings and make sure Wi-Fi is still turned on. you might restore the factory settings also. I hope this works. for you. If not the company is pretty good at the warranty.

The co said it was defective, I have a third one now, I'm afraid to take it out of the box.The first one stopped working after2 months, the second one I turned on once and it wouldn't shut off.I unplugged it but it never worked so they sent the 3rd one. They didn't ask me to send the others back, so I feel they don't know either. The only suggestion they came up with is "don't plug into a surge protector strip". I wish I could help, other than contact the company, not who you bought it from. Good luck

I had the same issue. The Wifi did not work and I had raised the concern as the company advertized that they provide 1 year support. The company did not fix the issue but refunded full amount along with the shipping cost and said need not to return the device.

I dont believe it was recalled, but there was a driver issue that caused the wifi not to connect. But once you update it, it is no longer a problem.

I have an issue with keeping myself logged in on my wi fi, the unit keeps turning off the connection. Besides that, l have no issues downloading or using apps from google play. I have, however, run into issues with Amazon apps.

I did the same thing. I did put a protector on it, praying that it would help. Someone told me it won't, that the screen will eventually spider web

I know I had a power surge a few weeks back that destroyed a few of my surge protectors but my netgear plugs still seem to be working fine although I have not done any intense network tests to prove it one way or the other.

I suggest you call Zagg to confirm. I purchased one from an Amazon seller, and the device didn't even work! ($80 (about) down the drain.). :/

That is what happened with the Hunter Wi-Fi thermostats I have now. They did however refund the complete purchase price when they shut down their web site. But for the difference in price I'm going to try this one. I can't bring myself to spend the $250 everyone else seems to be asking for them.

I have not used a wireless ant. I use the one that came with it. I have a lot of trees in the yard and it took time to find a place that had open sky. Now it works great even if it is rainy or cloudy
