Shut Off Specific Service Alert

<< < (2/4) > >>

Lavarock7:
There may be reasons his Obi is not powered on all day.

For example, my neighbor uses a gas generator for a few hours of electricity and is powerless the rest of the day. If he had a need for an Obi I would have come up with a battery-powered solution, but in his case, he would not have had an internet modem or router powered up either.

While many people in the U.S. have electricity and water all the time, it is not the case elsewhere.

Many people in my state rely upon rainfall and catchment tanks. They also get water totes ($250 or so), a plastic container in a wire frame and go to the public water tap for free water and drive home with it. I personally have 80,000 gallons of catchment water and 2 large totes here on my land.

One of my neighbors up the hill has no cable or DSL. He had to get a Verizon unit to get data service and use its wifi to get his local computer on the internet.

So as I say, not everyone has the luxury of others may have.

The OPs mileage may vary :-)

LTN1:
Just received an e-mail from Obihai about their new feature of OBi Notify here: https://www.obitalk.com/info/premiumsupport

Seems like Obihai is providing this new feature (e-mailing the user when the device is offline) for customers of the OBi2XX series (doesn't apply to the 1XX series--so wouldn't apply to the OP's situation--who has an OBi110) within the 1 year warranty and thereafter, for those who continue to purchase premium support.

Is there a way to shut that alert off?  Thanks.

OBi Notify is a brand-new feature, just released yesterday, so we don't know yet.  I don't have a support plan so I can't investigate for you.

I suggest logging in to OBiTALK and seeing if the configuration option is there.  (Search for OBi Notify.)  If not, I would be surprised, but in that case you could use an email filter to automatically delete the emails.

If you would be so kind, please post the solution if you find it, in case others have the same problem.

As already pointed out by LTN1 the Notify feature is not available for OBi100 and OBi110 devices.  The OP wrote that he has an OBi110.  Or does he also have a 200 or 202 but did not think it relevant to mention that because he wondered if the start of the notifications was caused by the updated 110 firmware?

Mango:
Where do you guys see that?  The email I received says "OBi Notify is available to customers who have OBiTALK Premium Support."  Based on that, if his 110 has a support plan, OBi Notify should work.
