I have recently got the EE hybrid connect with BT and it’s flashing red on the signal bars , I’ve been told multiple different things from it’s meant to flash red & that I need a sim for it and then that the sim is already in the box , I am just very confused if someone could explain for me

It's a BT product that happens to use the EE mobile network. Why don't you ask the BT Community  ?

Hi, just moved from BT to EE and getting flashing red bars on EE hybrid connect, no one I've spoken to at EE/BT seems to know why. I was previously with BT and hybrid connect worked fine

Unfortunately this video does not help, it does not show the fault being reported. It does not indicate what a red flashing 4G signal is. My mobile is with EE and has no signal issues in the same house/room whatsoever.

I have been sent a second hybrid connect box, and this has exactly the same issue. I completely agree with the below comment that was submitted.

 Hi, finally managed to get this resolved, had to make a complaint and someone finally got in touch who knew what they were talking about. He said there was a known issue with the Sim cards in these units, and he sent me one that now does work.  Had to return the previous 3 I was sent!!! Good luck
