A pairing code does not work
What each pairing message means, and what to do next.
- Code not found
- The code is wrong, has expired or was already used. A code works once, for 10 minutes. Start pairing again on the PC and use the new code.
- Too many wrong codes
- After 10 wrong codes in an hour, Ponta stops you confirming codes for that hour. Wait an hour, then start pairing again on the PC.
- Your plan is full
- Your plan already has as many PCs as it covers. Remove a PC or choose a bigger plan. Your code still works after that, until it expires.
- Choose another name
- Use up to 48 letters, numbers, dots, dashes or underscores, with no spaces. The name cannot end in
-admin. - Your sign-in expired
- Sign in again, then type the code.
