Monitoring Your Wi-Fi Connection with Ease
Introduction
In today’s world, the internet is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. Whether it’s for work or play, the internet is an essential part of our daily lives. However, it can be frustrating when you experience internet outages or poor connectivity.
That’s where ISP Tracker comes in. ISP Tracker offers free software to monitor your wired connection. The software would have to be running on a PC or other Windows/Linux or ARM based device. However, our hardware agent can be configured to monitor your WiFi, 4G, 5G, LTE Internet service.
This article will explore how ISP Tracker’s hardware agents work and how they can help you monitor your Wi-Fi internet connection.
What are ISP Tracker Hardware Agents?
ISP Tracker hardware agents are small devices that can monitor your internet connection.
These devices are self-updating, meaning they can provide you with the best possible reports. They can run 24/7 and save power, making them a reliable tool for monitoring your internet connection.
These devices can be used with either our free Community level service or the extended reports service. You can also mix software and hardware agents as needed.
When To Use ISP Tracker Hardware Agents?
To monitor an Internet connection properly, a PC running the ISP Tracker software would have to be left on and running 24/7. For some, this is not feasible, would consume too much power or they might be nervous that someone could turn the PC off, shutting down the monitoring software.
Our hardware agents are perfect in situations where monitoring 24/7 is preferred. Simply connect the agent to any free DHCP port on your network or router and the device is up and running. From that point, it will automatically find and track internet connection issues.
You can access your personal control panel or the ISP Tracker dashboard to monitor your internet outages. The dashboard provides you with useful information on the reliability of your internet service provider and internet connectivity.
