This thing is great!
This has been great at keeping our Verizon 5G internet up. Verizon router is notorious for needing a reboot. It is the first thing support always asks. This thing has a keep alive and when it detects communications lost it cuts power to the router waits x seconds then powers it on. The delays are configurable and I have it scheduled to do a reboot every 3 days in the middle of the night. And when Verizon internet slows down, which happens frequently, it has a manual reset so I do not have to go to the basement and pull power cords any more.

This appears to be just the device I was looking for
Update 2/19/25 - It’s been over 4 years and the 254 resets that Keep Connect has performed have kept my connection available every singe one of those days. That’s a phenomenal accomplishment. Bravo Zulu Keep Connect!Update: 8/7/23 - It’s been over 2.5 years and Keep Connect has worked flawlessly. I’ve not experienced any prolong outages since deploying it. Sure beats having to drive 150 miles every month or so to reset my router as I had to do before Keep Connect.Update: 11/16/22 - I’ve been using Keep Connect for almost 2 years now. It’s working better and more often than ever. I recently switched from a mom and pop AT&T bandwidth reseller to T-Mobile’s Home Internet. My old connection almost never went down so I would go months without Keep Connect having to do its thing. This T-Mobile connection has many more problems and Keep Connect is sometimes kicking in several times a day to keep the connection up. I appreciate this device more than ever.Update: 8/28/22 - another year has passed and Keep Connect is still working flawlessly for me. More importantly, my remote connection has remained available.Update 4: 7/15/2021 - Keep Connect has been working for me as advertised for about 7 months. I have it set to power cycle my LTE router once a week and it has handled the occasional connectivity issues just fine. No complaints at all.Update 3: 1/27/2021 - In a previous update, I mentioned that you can set Keep Connect to automatically cycle power on a particular day and time. Turns out that isn’t entirely accurate. On a Tuesday I set mine to automatically cycle power every 7 days at 10:00am. One might think that this would cycle power every Tuesday at 10 :00am thereafter. However, what it actually seems to do is to cycle power seven days from the previous power cycle. So if Keep Connect cycled power on a Saturday (unscheduled) due to a connectivity issue, the next automatic scheduled power cycle would be seven days from Saturday, unless of course their is another unscheduled event in the meantime.Update 2: 1/9/2021 - My LTE internet connection had some hiccups this morning, which Keep Connect recognized and in response power cycled my router. The power cycle did reestablish the connection. The text I received when this happened is attached. Bumped my original 4 star rating to a 5.Update: 1/5/2021 - I have my Keep Connect setup to automatically power cycle my router every Tuesday at 10:00am. That functionality seems to work as advertised. I received a text message from them informing me of the auto reset.I am using this device to keep an LTE-based internet connection up at a remote cabin.Before purchasing this device, I tried several different but similar devices, none of which worked for more than a few months. These other devices were more brute force. They simply cycled power on a device on a predetermined schedule. Keep Connect differs from those other devices in that it is intended to join a WiFi network and monitor it for certain connectivity issues. It then is supposed to power cycle the device plugged into it in response to those connectivity issue. It does also have the capability to cycle power on a schedule.The included configuration documentation and the information provided on their website is pretty sparse.When you first plug-in the Keep Connect device, it creates a new, temporary WiFi network to join in order to configure the device. When you connect to that temporary SSID (I used an iPad), a configuration page will automatically pop up in a web browser. From this configuration page you select Configure WiFi and then on the subsequent page, select the Wi-Fi network’s SSID you want the device to join and monitor. You will also need to provide your WiFi network password. You can also provide a cell phone number for Keep Connect to send texts to on certain events, such as when it power cycles your router. I left all other options on the main configuration page at default values. I suggest you also select the Advance Configuration option at this point. From the Advance Configuration section you can select a schedule to power cycle your device, among other options. If you later want to change any of the configuration options, you must hit the main button on the front of the device and reconfigure from scratch. It’s not a difficult or time-consuming process though.Once you save your configuration, you should receive an automated text message from Johnson Creative (assuming you entered your cell phone number) which lets you know that their back-end set up is complete. It also provides a code which can be used from their website to remotely query your device. None of the information returned from this functionality was sensitive, but you should be aware that Johnson Creative is remotely communicating with your Keep Connect device. The information returned is essentially the date and time of previous power cycles and a timestamp of the last time they communicated with your KeepConnect device.I intend to update this review once I know that it consistently does what it claims. The reason for my initial 4 star review is that I currently lack that information.

Good solution for vacation house with Satellite internet
I wanted a solution for the frequent outages from my satellite provider. This device was easy to install and promises to reset the modem after an outage.

Useless. Maybe buying the "Premium" subscription makes it better?
Easy to set up. No app required. Plug in and connect to the wifi network, and settings comes up.Entered wireless network information easily enough, it connected right away.Was setting this up for my 90 yr old grandmother, so I decided to unplug it from the wall, wait a few seconds and plug it back in ... and I ALMOST didn't do this because I assumed such a BASIC function would be well designed.Nope. Plug it back in and it just flashes yellow. Forever. Requires manually pressing the button, connecting to the interface, and clicking "Save" on the ALREADY ENTERED settings. Then, voila, it instantly is reconnected.It'd be nice and automatic. If it weren't a MANUAL process.Thought, I'll check their site for firmware updates. I can see the current firmware name and chipset information, but in all their wisdom decided not to provide the downloads in an easily accessible area. Instead, there's a broken web form that does nothing. Tried 3 different computers.If you're into tech like I am, if a bigger device doesn't bother you then just go with the Digital Loggers brand. They've been around forever, firmware downloads on their website, and solid as a rock. Thought it'd be overkill for this situation.If they get it together it will be a nice product. And maybe it would work great if you live in a perfect world with no power outages. But I even tried killing my Wi-Fi signal to make sure it would reconnect. Nope.I was trying to get this set up for my grandmother before a flight in a few hours, so she wouldn't be without Internet if her connection went down, while I was out of town. Sorry, Grandma. Think we're better off without this for now.UPDATE: I had preconfigured this at my place before going to where it was to be installed. Added an identical SSID/password to my router for preconfiguration purposes. While it would not connect to my Wi-Fi without going through settings (I have Ubiquiti UniFi WiFi 6 and 7 APs), but once I did it would instantly connect as I said.... When I tested at my grandmother's place, situated super-close to the router, it fired up fine and connected. So, it's possible that this was due to Wi-Fi congestion at the condo I'm in. I was testing it about 10 feet from the Wireless AP at my place. I just still find it strange that, if I connected to it in AP mode to get to the setup process, and hit "Save", it would connect at my place within 5 seconds. If it can connect like that, it should be able to do so on its' own. IMO. Guess this is a situation where YMMV.Great concept and fills a definite need. Amazing that the Kasa/etc haven't added this as a feature to their plugs.(For me, I have the UniFi Smart Plug that's like $20 when in stock, but it requires UniFi hardware. It works great though.)Good luck! Will update once it's been in place for awhile, to let you know how things are working...
