Anyone who’s been a victim of intermittent internet connection would know what its like to have battle a tangle of junk (or worse, get up from the couch) just to reset your router or modem. So why not have something that can do it for you?
This is the ResetPlug, a device that’s designed to keep an eye on your internet connection and automatically cycle your router and modem’s power till your ‘net comes back, if it detects a problem. These features make it good for people who have smart appliances which are reliant on the ‘net to stay functional like security cameras or those who just don’t want to do it manually.
It isn’t cheap though, as it carries a pretty fat $59.99 pricetag, but you won’t need a special remote or smartphone app to activate it. Probably won’t be all that useful to you if your router happens to be at arm’s reach but it would save you on a lot of trouble if you install it for someone who can’t (or is unable) to reset their connection on their own.
If you’re keen on getting it for yourself, you can pick it up from their online store here.
