Internet Outage Service

These devices come with MySpool Internet Outage Detection Service. It can only be used with devices using faster and more powerful processors which allow MySpool devices to maintain a secure connection with our cloud services. This connection is monitored continuously and is used to send an Internet OFF alert in case of Internet Outage. When internet connectivity is restored, an Internet ON alert is sent. These alerts can be configured just like all other MySpool device alerts, with Text messages, multiple email recipients and available integrations.

 

Get alerted when WiFi failures occur. This device will send you a text message when an Internet outage happens as well as when it comes back online.

Internet detection service sends multiple status updates to MySpool cloud service per minute. If two or more are missed, the service sends Internet OFF alert. It usually takes 1-3 minutes for this alert to be generated and delivered. Once internet connectivity is restored, an Internet ON alert is sent.

Both Internet ON and Internet OFF notifications are configured independently; both can be disabled if desired. All MySpool notification and monitoring services are free.

View device status and recent activity on a dedicated secure web page. Temperature high and low alerts and Internet ON and OFF alerts as well as the temperature chart are displayed.

Multiple (up to 5) email addresses can be added to receive alerts. All or some of them can be used to receive text notifications. See General FAQ for details.

Email messages are limited to one per minute per sensor.

 

Whether you are running a coffee shop with free wifi or have gadgets that rely on wifi at home, it helps to know when your internet service becomes unavailable. This device will do that for you.

All MySpool services are free.


 

 

 

We introduced the Power Failure Detector to the world in June 2020.  Internet Outage Detector followed three years later, in July 2023. Now we are happy to offer you a powerful combination of these two detectors:

  • Be alerted when either A/C power or Internet WiFi fails: get a text message, email or a push notification when power goes off or comes back on and when internet fails and is restored
  • All alerts, Power ON and Power OFF,  Internet ON and Internet OFF are configured independently; every one can be disabled if desired. 
  • Name each device and send notifications to identify the power outlet or WiFi network affected
  • Every MySpool device is independent; no hub is required
  • No fees or subscription costs

 

Be alerted away from home or business 
MySpool Power Failure and Internet Outage Detector is a smart device that sends an alert when power failure is detected and when an internet outage occurs.  An alert is also sent when power or internet comes back on. That alert is a message, either via email or text, or both.

No Hub is Required 
Each Power Failure and Internet Outage Detector works independently with your WiFi network. Multiple devices can be placed in different locations throughout your home or business. Your notifications will include your text for each device that you specify in the device configuration.

No Fees 
There are no fees for using MySpool Power Failure and Internet Outage Detector for any notifications. Power Failure and Internet Outage Detector purchased on MySpool.com comes with support for 1 telephone number and up to 5 email addresses for alert notifications. To add more telephone numbers without fees, see these directions.

Flexible design 
MySpool Power Failure and Internet Outage Detector will ignore short duration power fluctuations of less than 2 seconds so that no unnecessary notifications are sent. Note that since no device is permitted to send more than 1 alert per minute, your POWER ON notification may be delayed by up to 1 minute if power comes back on immediately. Each device requires 3 AAA batteries, included. The batteries should last 5 years or more assuming average power outages and fluctuations.

Internet detection service sends multiple status updates to MySpool cloud service per minute.  If two or more are missed, the service sends Internet OFF alert. It usually takes 1-3 minutes for this alert to be generated and delivered.  Once internet connectivity is restored, an Internet ON alert is sent.

Whether you are running a coffee shop with free wifi or have gadgets that rely on wifi at home, it helps to know when your internet service becomes unavailable or when power outage occurs. This device will let you know when either of these vital services fails.

All MySpool services are free.

 


 

A security camera that stopped recording on Tuesday and nobody noticed until Friday. A rental with a smart lock that will not open. A card reader dead in the middle of a lunch rush. When the line drops at a building you are not standing in, what you lose is never the internet itself, it is everything running on top of it, and the clock does not start until somebody finally calls you.

This detector closes that gap. Plug it into any free LAN port on your router or switch, add power, and it begins reporting to the MySpool cloud several times a minute. Miss two check-ins and an Internet OFF alert goes out, usually within one to three minutes. Service returns and an Internet ON alert follows on its own. As an internet connection monitor for a site you cannot see, it needs nothing else: no app, no hub, no gateway, no bridge and no code.

Every event lands on a secure web page with a timestamp, so a line that has been unstable for a month becomes dates and times you can put in front of your provider rather than an impression you argue about. Set the outage interval anywhere from 2 to 30 minutes. Add up to five email addresses, one SMS number, and active hours so nothing wakes you.

Put it where the connection matters and the staff do not go: a camera or NVR cabinet, a POS or kiosk closet, a vacation cabin, a barn, a warehouse mezzanine, a small clinic, a branch office holding a VPN back to head office. One LAN port, one outlet, and a downtime alarm that alerts you—so you don’t have to track down the issue.
