Hi @west, do you have a new Electron or a Beta Unit?
If Beta, give this thread a read for how to upgrade ahead of time: https://community.particle.io/t/solved-unable-to-setup-particle-electron/19919/12
If new, it will be nice to see what's happening on your unit to debug it more easily. To do this you may download a version of Tinker that has USB serial debugging enabled:
https://github.com/spark/firmware/releases/download/v0.4.8-rc.6/tinker-usb-debugging-v0.4.8-rc.6-electron.bin
You can then flash this to your electron with the [**Particle CLI**][1] with your electron in [**DFU mode**][2]:
``
particle flash --usb tinker-usb-debugging-v0.4.8-rc.6-electron.bin
``
Then open a serial terminal just after the electron boots. If you can copy and paste the output up to the time time when the LED turns White, that would be helpful.
