strung together this:

I'm trying to fit a new light switch (2-way, controlling 2 lights). There
are 2x common 2x L1 and 2x L2 connectors on the new switch.

I wired it yesterday and wired it identically to the old switch (which had
the same connector labellings). However, the downstairs light now comes
on
when the switch is in the "OFF" position, and turns off when it's in the
"ON" position - and no the switch isn't upside down.

What can I do to remedy this?


Two way switches don't have 'On' or 'Off' positions, both positions can be
on or off depending on the other switch.

I used to work for a bloke that wanted all 2 way switches to be off
when in the up position, PITA really so I never bothered.

This sounds like a troll...

If it's not a troll then swap the L1 and L2 wires over at one of the
switches.
