Getting notifications

There are two types of notifications to keep you updated; network access alerts you when a change is made that impacts your network, and network activity alerts you when a new device joins your network. You can opt in to receive these home network notifications in real time through email, SMS or push notifications on your mobile device. Access the Notification Center by going to the Account tab then tapping Notification Center.

Monitor cyber threats

Turn on Advanced Security in your app to protect your connected devices from online threats. You'll receive automatic alerts when a threat is detected, and you can view the status of your network and see history. Go to the Home tab then select Advanced Security. Learn more

Manage devices

With the Panoramic Wifi app in your hands, you’re in charge. From the WiFi tab, you can set limits and controls for different devices, and personalize settings to promote healthy online habits.

To pause an individual device, simply select the unpaused device and then select Pause Device. You can either pause for a specific amount of time (like 30 minutes, one hour, etc,) or indefinitely until you choose to unpause.

This allows you to automatically pause wifi access over your home network during scheduled times for all devices assigned to a profile. To create a downtime schedule, select a person's Settings page and select Create Schedule next to Downtime. Then, you can select the type of schedule you wish to set (examples can be Anytime, Bedtime, Homework and Dinner). After picking a schedule, select Next to specify which days the schedule applies to. On the next screen, you can pick start and end times, then Apply to save the changes.

An active Time Alert lets you know how long a profile is active on your home network and helps your family promote healthy internet habits. To set up an Active Time Alert, visit the profile you’d like to set an alert for, tap the Settings gear icon, select Set up an Active Time Limit and tap Get Started. You can then choose Weekdays or Weekends and adjust the bar to set the active time limit.

First, create a profile and assign your child’s devices to it. Once created, select the profile, then select the Settings gear icon in top right corner. Next select Parental Controls, then tap Turn On to allow access to content deemed appropriate for all ages.

To remove a device from a profile, select the desired profile under the Connected to your WiFi section from the WiFi tab. Scroll to down to Assigned Devices, tap Unassign, then tap the Trash Can icon next to the selected device.
