Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong section. If this is not possible, is there anything on the market I can use to notify me if my home internet is down rather than the ISP.

Many thanks

When managing the router remotely, you will see the router as cloud device offline, but there is no pop up notification.

Thank you for the reply. Do you know if there is any other hardware I can purchase so I know when the router is off from the house as a pop up on my phone please.

Many Thanks.

  @Tim1981 you can use a remote service to ping your WAN IP address (ISP ip address) such as uptimerobot or hetrixtools or similar and send you a notification when the ip is down via ping. Most of them offer free service if you are checking 1 device every 5 minutes or so. Don't need hardware for it but will need to have a router that allows response to WAN pings.

  @bathtank Is there any other way to get notifications when Internet goes down without opening ping to WAN IPs? Doing that exposes a router to potential hackers pinging a router.

  @thosecars82 you can explore Aqara hub. It has an offline notification option. 

Have seen multiple thread on this topic over the years but no actual resolution or outcome.

Thought this would be a fairly basic feature, for the app to 'ping' the home router periodically, and generate a Push notification in the event that the primary router is offline.

This would require the app to be running in the background on the phone/device, and probably would impact battery performance, but I think its a worthwhile feature for those who needs to be notified of such events.

A situation that happen to me today:

Home internet went down while I am on holiday.

While I have well over a dozen systems connected to the home WIFI, including:

- EUFY security

- LinkTap watering

- Ecowitt weather station

- Apple TV (used as a hub)

- Robot vacuums

- etc etc

The only offline notification I recieved was from the SmartThings app for my Samsung TV which was also set up as a hub. I am not sure if this was coincidental, but out of all these apps, I think the Deco app should be the primary app that provide such notification.
