Helium 5G Troubleshooting Guide

No supported radios are attached to FreedomFi Gateway.

Make sure the POE injector is connected properly. On the poe injector the POE port will go to the antenna, and the LAN port will go to the FreedomFi.

Unplug the antenna from the POE injectors, POE port for 5 minutes and plug it back in, wait 30 minutes to see if the radios appear in the dashboard.

If the radio is still not showing up after 30 minutes, give it 24hours of waiting to see if it appears.

If after waiting 24 hours the radio is still not there, you will need to submit a ticket to FreedomFi here: https://freedomfi.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/6/create/12

I can’t onboard my FreedomFi.

After you have plugged in your FreedomFi, please give it an hour to do any updates it might need.

Check the status page of FreedomFi. If there are problems wait until the maintenance is finished. You can view it here: https://status.helium.freedomfi.com/

Make sure you are connect to the same network as the FreedomFi, such as home wifi. Disable mobile data to be safe. If you are still unable to onboard the unit, please open a ticket with FreedomFi here: https://freedomfi.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/6/create/12

I don't see any mobile tokens in my wallet.

There's no lights on my 430h antenna.

Make sure the included POE injector is being used and the antenna cable is going into the POE port on the POE injector and not the LAN port.

Unplug the antenna from the POE injectors, POE port for 5 minutes and plug it back in, wait a couple minutes to see if the lights come on.

If are still no lights, please open a ticket with FreedomFi here: https://freedomfi.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/6/create/12

My radio has no GPS lock.

Make sure the radio has a clear line of sight view of the sky, installing under a roof could cause issues locking on.

Unplug the antenna from the POE injectors, POE port for 5 minutes and plug it back in, check every couple hours to see if it has locked on.

If it's still not locked on after 24 hours, please open a ticket with FreedomFi here: https://freedomfi.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/group/6/create/12

My FreedomFi eNB2 and eNB3 port are not lighting up.

This is just a visual bug, you should still be able to view the radios in the dashboard. If not. Unplug the antenna from the POE injectors, POE port for 5 minutes and plug it back in, check every couple minutes to see if they appeared.
