Internet Requirements for the Phyn Smart Water Sensor

Last updated on 24 Feb, 2026

The Phyn Smart Water Sensor requires an always-on broadband internet connection to function properly.

Your internet connection should be:

  • Broadband speed such as high-speed DSL, fiber, cable, or satellite

  • Always on

  • Available at the location where the Sensor is installed

A stable internet connection ensures your Sensor can:

  • Send water detection alerts immediately

  • Report temperature and humidity readings

  • Keep your device status up to date


Not Supported

  • Mobile hotspot connections

Mobile hotspot connections are not considered always-on. After a power outage, they typically do not reconnect automatically. This could leave your home unmonitored until the connection is restored.
