Getting Alerts for Low WiFi Signal with ControlUp

Posted on November 15, 2022

A user asked about getting an alert for low wifi signal exclusive to computers using wifi, and was suggested to use a parameter with a specific value. The user then asked if it’s possible to get a toast notification for the end user showing a "low wifi signal" message – which can be done using a script from the ControlUp Script Library (https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/notify-user-when-poor-wi-fi-detection/), and a demo video can be found on Vimeo (https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/766155433). The user also shared that their alarm usually goes off at 6.30am and they get out at 6.45.


Read the entire ‘Getting Alerts for Low WiFi Signal with ControlUp’ thread below:

salutations friends. trying to get alerted when wifi signal is below 60%. however its including computers that are on ethernet. I tried to exclude ethernet by only looking at computers that had a wifi SSID. However this is grabbing those that have a Wifi card but are still connected to ethernet. any ideas how to accomplish this?


Or, maybe I do not have the parameters correct. If i want wifi_ssid to be empty, what value would that b e? I left it blank but that isnt working. Would it be 0, or NULL?You could add and and for wifi signal is >1


perfect!


another quick Q has anyone created a script in EdgeDX that notifies the end user of something. Ie, "hey dude your wifi signal is low, go back inside" ?I did and we essentially used the same toast notification that you can grab from the RT community scripts


The pop-up is in this demo video https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/766155433

That’s similar, if you want one that has a snooze button and a button to open a webpage ping me, I might have an example or not 🙂


There he goes with his Snooze. He be pushing the Power of the Snooze 😉

Are you the kind of person who will automatically hit the snooze button when the alarm goes of in the morning Wouter?

Actually I suspect you are the kind of person who is up before his alarm every morning…


I actually hit snooze at least once in the morning just because I refuse to get up what the alarm goes off out of principle.


And that’s after the alarm on my phone goes off so technically I snooze twice I guessI get up just before. But my principle is always set the alarm 1 minute after I’m supposed to get up. ie. 8:01 AM

So I get the psychological boost of having to get up after 8 AM 🙂


That’s sleeping in for me, alarm usually goes off at 6.30 and I get out at around 6.45


FYI – for the inpatient the line of code for a pop up message is

"C:\Program Files\Avacee\sip_agent\UserPrompt.exe" "WiFi signal is low. Please move closer to the router"
