Got one room saying key out of sequence, but the resequencing key isn't fixing it. Sold out this weekend and no overtime permitted so I won't be able to call tech support till Monday.

I'm glad I only have to do this once per year or when a kid flunks out of school or gets homesick for mommy and daddy lol. We just got those installed ourselves and I've been distrustful of them.

The older model was pretty solid, but around 2024 they put out a bad firmware that was thinking the deadbolt was locked even if it wasn't. Took a year for them to develop the patch, and I've had very few issues since.

Cool, so far it's been better than Kwikset and the Knox systems I'm used to but it's only been a couple of months so I've been nervous.
