0.20.5

Fixed

  • Wired devices are now detected and no longer treated as Wi-Fi devices. Wi-Fi outage detection matches your devices to their router trackers by hardware address, and a hardware address says nothing about whether a device is on Wi-Fi or plugged into a network cable. On the reference system that pulled in four PoE cameras and a network printer, none of which can be affected by a Wi-Fi outage. Two consequences, both now closed: several wired devices dropping together (a switch rebooting, for instance) could have declared a Wi-Fi outage that never happened, and a wired device that genuinely failed during a real outage would have been blamed on the network instead of reported on its own.
  • Where your router says a device is wired, it is left out of Wi-Fi detection. TP-Link and Fritz both publish this; routers that publish nothing are unaffected and keep the devices they had.

Added

  • The diagnostics download now shows how your router trackers divide between wired, wireless, and unstated, and lists any that were left out for being wired. This makes the matching auditable from a download rather than a support conversation.
