WiFi Temperature Watchdog

Regular monitoring of the temperature of access points and other network devices, with a history of readings and alerts when a safe limit is exceeded — before overheating causes an outage.

Why temperature matters

Overheated access points, switches and other active network devices are a common, quiet cause of outages and unstable connections — the signal weakens, connections drop, and only a later look at the history shows overheating was behind it. Without ongoing measurement this usually only comes to light once the network actually stops working, typically in summer or in a poorly ventilated equipment room or server closet.

What we monitor

• Temperature of access points, switches and other network devices that can report it.
• The trend over time — the graph shows a trend, not just the current reading, so a gradual worsening is visible before it causes a failure.
• A safe limit set separately for each device, based on its type and where it's installed.
• Alerts when that limit is exceeded, so you have time to act before the network seizes up.

How it works

The dashboard and report are built from regular readings taken directly from devices that can report them. Readings are stored, so you see the history, not just the current state — and it's the history that best shows whether something is a one-off blip or a trend heading toward a problem.

Deployment at your site

• We connect into your existing network; nothing extra needs installing on your side.
• We set safe limits per device, based on its type and location (an outdoor antenna vs. a server room).
• The dashboard and alerts are available to you and to us — you see exactly what we see.

The temperature watchdog is an add-on to regular IT management, not a standalone product — we deploy it as part of ongoing care for your network.
