Today I received the Energy dongle. I managed to connect to homey and to the internet An updated started After that it went from bad to worse. Update ran for 30 minutes, nothing happened it was constantly swithcin between bleu purple and red. I rebooted the dongle, now the led is constantly ‘breating’ red. Tried to factory reset, this did not work, kept the reset button pressed for 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, but the led keeps ‘breathing’ red. No blinking, no reset. Does anyone have any idea how to get it up and running? ---
