I noticed the device wasn’t sending notifications, so I checked on it and it had a static white light with no laser. I unplugged power and plugged it back it. Now it is blinking white light with its laser. Now when I hold down the M button it blinks purple for a few seconds, the starts blinking green/yellow. Holding it down for more than 10 seconds does not change the behavior. Pushing the R button makes it go back to blinking white. Holding the R button doesn’t do anything different. It doesn’t seem like I can put the device into Listening mode to try and reconnect to a new Wi-Fi networks. What do I need to do to fix this? I’ve loved having the product for several years, please help me know what I can do to get this back to its previous state, thanks. Chris ---

Chris, This page describes the LED indications supported by the module in your Garadget: > **[Status LED and Device Modes | Troubleshooting](https://docs.particle.io/troubleshooting/led/)** > > Explanation of status LED codes and device modes for Particle IoT devices Do any of those match the indication in your Garadget?
