You're on the right track - each Base Station can only be assigned to one account at a time. So if that serial is somehow still active on a previous account, you wouldn't be able to register it.
If you're typing in the Base Station serial, of course, you'll want to double-check that you have the 8-digit code right. 1's and L's, and B's and 8's, can look pretty similar!
The easiest solution is to just send you a new Base Station - but we need a bit more info from you to get that started. We'll reach out soon.
As for getting linked to WiFi - I'm not familiar with that particular brand, but it sounds like a mesh system, which we have heard some customers having trouble with. You've mentioned changing passwords as well - do any of the new passwords exceed the 32-character limit? And do you use any special characters for either?
If the SSID does appear on the Keypad, that means the system can actually see it. So the issue might be someone along the process of authenticating with your router.
RE: wireless - it is not Mesh - I only have one on in this office. Meraki is upper mid tier enterprise networking gear, parent company Cisco. It is pretty good stuff, all things considered. I have dozens of their routers, AP's and switches deployed across many of my own customers environments. I have tried many passwords - none of them longer than 32 chars though.
Johnny, I saw the email sent to me yesterday and I responded with all requested info. I haven't received a call or response. Please push this forward - I am pretty bummed I dont have this thing fully operational.
Bump in hopes that someone (Johnny, anyone) will see this and push for movement.
No response here, no response in 4 days to my email reply to support (they asked for some info) and attempts to call into the support phone last over an hour on hold with no hope that anyone will ever actually pick up.
