Stay online if your fiber network goes down with the Smart Home Manager app and your AT&T unlimited wireless data.
If you experience a fiber outage, internet backup connects your All-Fi Hub to a device on your AT&T Wireless account. This keeps your hub and all connected devices online. (You should turn off any non-AT&T extenders during an outage to avoid interruptions. AT&T Extended Wi-Fi Coverage Service shouldn’t affect your backup.)
Once set up, Smart Home Manager sends a push notification if your internet backup is activated during an outage. When this happens, your hub connects to a participating mobile device in your home to keep you online until fiber services are restored. This takes less than a minute. Be sure to keep the mobile device charged so you don’t lose service.
Once fiber service is restored, your internet backup automatically turns off.
FYI: Internet backup deactivates if you cancel AT&T Fiber or AT&T Wireless, change your AT&T Wireless to a limited plan, or remove the Smart Home Manager app.
Important: Make sure you accept all permissions and enable notifications and cellular data for Smart Home Manager. These help keep you informed and connected.
