The 4G router through which my Vera Plus is connected, disconnects from internet from time to time. Powering it out and in again restores the Internet connection. So far I do the “power out/power in” operation regularly irrespective of the connection status. Ideally I’d rather do it only if/when necessary. Thus my question : is there a way for the Vera Plus to notice the loss of the Internet connection ?
Thanks in advance to whoever who might help !

Hi,
You could use the Netmon Device to ping the router and/or a web address, then trigger a scene when the ping fails.

I was going to recommend SiteSensor by @rigpapa for this purpose. Either/or. But certainly this is a good opportunity to think about using Reactor plug-in as a means of sending you custom warning message (via SMTP, for example) once Internet service returns after an outage.
