Re: EnvisAlarm monitoring if Internet line cut

Update I'd finally gotten fail-over to work on my Ubiquiti ER-Lite router about three weeks ago or so. In the wee hours of this morning my Comcast circuit apparently went down for about two hours. (I've got the router emailing me fail-over and fail-back notifications.) Router switched to the fail-ov...

Re: EnvisAlarm monitoring if Internet line cut

Unfortunately, I can't find the Netgear 6100D available for sale anywhere. Any recommendations for alternative 4G gateways? I know I'm a bit late to the game, here, but: NETGEAR 4G LTE Modem – Instant Broadband Connection (LB1120) The NetGear LTE modem works great. Unfortunately I've yet to get my ...

Re: Security Concern when Entering your Arm/Disarm Code on the Mobile site

And if you have "auto form complete" option set to ON it saves what you have typed, so if someone steals your phone they just click on the box and it shows what you have previously entered. You make a good point, in my opinion , but, also in my opinon , I'd argue that having an unlocked m...

Re: check multimedia settings to receive messages

Before trying anything with EnvisaLink, try sending short emails from a regular email service and see if those get through. Then you'll know what should work and what (probably) will not. E.g.: I can send "texts" to my phone, via email, from any of my five email accounts on different serve...

Re: EnvisaLink 4, can you add on cellular/phone backup notification?

I'm fairly PC literate, somewhat familar with networking, so don't mind setting something up like you mentioned or not sure how complicated a dual wan router setup is. Right now, I am basically using the Verizon modem/router, a TPLINK smart switch, and a UNIFI for WIFI ACCESS. That said, would I ne...

Re: Do I need to communicate to the Eyez-On server?

On the Homeseer site there is a post by the Envisalink plugin author that states " This problem has been reported by other users, it looks like the envisalink board is stuck for some time before it can successfully communicate again. I reported the problem to Envisacor but I don't think they h...

Re: EnvisaLink 4, can you add on cellular/phone backup notification?

If you're having frequent day-long Internet service interruptions I think you need to have a talk with your ISP. I would find that both intolerable and unacceptable. As for which way to go: Personally, my feeling is that if you get redundancy on your Internet connection than not only is your alarm s...

Re: Will this Work: Honeywell 5816 Wireless Sensors with the EnvisaLink 4

I'm about to pull the trigger on a 20P/EVL-4/Keypad combo but I'm having a hard time deciding on which keypad to get. Several folks here use the 6162RF while still others use the 6160RF. Why did you choose the 6162RF over the 6160RF? The 6162rf being the replacement/upgrade to the 6160rf is why I c...

Re: Will this Work: Honeywell 5816 Wireless Sensors with the EnvisaLink 4

FWIW: I'm using EnvisAlarm & I'm quite pleased with it. One time, recently, my wife told me, as I was leaving in the morning, "I'm getting up." This means "Don't set the alarm." I didn't hear her and she didn't realize it. So she opened the doorwall when she got up and... Mon...
