Audible bleep if internet goes down

  • Routers (and mesh points?) to beep alarm when internet connection is lost - after configurable number of minutes. My, as well as many, people's security cameras rely on cloud apps for their alerts. Burglars often know this and cut the phone lines outside the house before starting work. If we could choose to have the routers (and mesh points if they have any sound capability) to make a few bleeps when broadband goes down, that could be used as early warning that the phone line had been cut. NB just when it first notices - no one wants the bleeping to continue the whole time it's down.

  • @inge-jones they have sound capabilities, my router has a chime and the mesh points beep when I changed the WiFi channel.
