Read our IP Remote Power Switch Review
The 3Gstore IP Power Switch is a simple product that automatically power-cycles any device when internet connectivity is lost. All you have to do is connect the included ethernet cable from the 3Gstore IP Switch to your router, and then connect the power cables of the devices that you want to be power-cycled when internet connectivity is lost, like your DSL modem and router. Once you have everything connected, press the "UIS" button, and everything will be up and running. The 3Gstore IP Switch automatically pings five different targets (which you can specify), and when it is unable to ping the specified targets, it will power-cycle any devices that are connected to its power source.
If you are a current user of the IP Switch, you can download the latest utility application here: IP Switch Utility File (you will need a Windows computer to run this utility)
Uses for the 3Gstore IP Switch:
- Home users who have to manually power-cycle their router to re-gain internet connectivity
- IT Professionals who need to automatically or remotely reset devices
- Preventing your connection from timing out or going dormant
- Create an automatic power schedule (ex: turn on at 9am & turn off at 5pm)
The primary feature of the unit is very simple: it monitors an internet connection and power-cycles the connected devices if the internet connection goes down. This simple feature alone can be very useful if your mobile broadband or cable/DSL connection drops, and all you need to do is reset the router to re-gain connectivity - this will automatically reset the router for you, without anyone having to visit the location and manually cycle power. While the unit's main feature is very simple and may be the only feature most customers will use, the unit also includes some more advanced features:
- Web Interface: Allows you to monitor status, view logs, and change advanced settings & configurations via web browser
- Power Scheduling: Up to 20 schedules may be set to turn power on/off to specific ports at specified times
- Timed Power-Cycling: Automatically power cycle power every X minutes (1-1440)
- Logs: To keep track of when the unit had to reset power, etc
- Dynamic DNS Support & Remote Admin: Allows customers to log in via the web to access controls, view logs, and remotely turn on/off power to specific ports or reset power
- MSN Messenger Support: Sends you notifications and allows you to issue commands to check the status, as well as turn on/off power or power-cycle certain ports via MSN Messenger (AIM & Yahoo support coming soon!)
- Advanced Network Configuration: Allows you to set up to obtain a static IP address and use different DNS servers and change HTTP web admin interface port
- Save/Restore Configuration: Allows you to save and easily restore your configuration. Good for customers who are purchasing multiple units, as they can create a custom configuration file and apply it to all of their units instead of manually configuring each unit
