What Keep Connect Type G Does

Automatic recovery when your router freezes

With default settings, Keep Connect Type G:

  1. Checks a Johnson Creative test domain every 5 minutes.
  2. If that check fails, waits 1 minute and checks a second test domain.
  3. If both fail, cuts power to your router for 30 seconds, then restores it.
  4. Waits 3 minutes for the router to boot, then checks the connection again.
  5. If the internet is still down, tries again, up to 3 resets. It then waits 4 hours before the next round, so a long outage does not cause endless reboots.

You can change every one of these timings in Advanced Settings.

Keep Connect Type G fixes the problems a power cycle can clear. It cannot fix an outage on your internet provider’s side, a damaged cable or failed hardware.

Who It Helps

Built for Type G households

  • Homes and flats with Type G sockets. Plug in directly, no adapter.
  • Travellers and property owners. Keep a home connection running while away. One verified owner reports it reset the router automatically during three ISP connection failures while on holiday.
  • Streamers and home workers. Recover from drops without leaving the sofa or desk.
  • Smart homes. Keep cameras and automations online.

How It Works

Set up in four steps

  1. Plug in. Plug Keep Connect Type G into the wall, then plug your router or modem into it.
  2. Join the setup network. On your phone, connect to the Wi-Fi network named KeepConnect followed by 4 characters. The setup page opens automatically. If not, go to 192.168.4.1.
  3. Create a login and join your Wi-Fi. Create a local admin username and password. Then choose your 2.4 GHz network and enter its password.
  4. Add notifications. Enter your email address, SMS number or both. You will get a confirmation with your Keep Connect ID and Code.

The LED turns solid blue when Keep Connect Type G is connected and monitoring.

Setup and Documentation

FAQ

How often should you reboot your router?

It depends on your router and connection. Keep Connect Type G reboots your router automatically whenever the internet drops. You can also schedule a preventive reboot every set number of days, at the hour you choose.

How do I reboot my router remotely?

With Keep Connect Cloud Services, you can trigger a reboot from the app or web portal while the network is online. When the internet is down, a remote command cannot reach the device, so Keep Connect Type G reboots the router automatically instead.

Does Keep Connect Type G need a subscription?

No. No subscription is required for basic automatic rebooting, scheduled reboots and text or email notifications. Keep Connect Cloud Services add remote reboots, remote settings, event history and remote firmware updates.

Will Keep Connect Type G reset my router settings?

No. Keep Connect Type G power cycles your router: it cuts power for 30 seconds by default, then restores it. A power cycle is not a factory reset, so your router keeps its settings.

Can a router rebooter fix every internet outage?

No. It fixes the problems a power cycle can clear, such as a frozen router or modem. It cannot fix an outage on your internet provider’s side, a damaged cable or failed hardware.

Does Keep Connect Type G work with 5 GHz Wi-Fi?

It connects to 2.4 GHz networks only, using 802.11 b/g/n with WPA or WPA2-Personal security. It is not compatible with 5 GHz-only, WPA2-Enterprise or WPA3-only networks.

What happens during a long internet outage?

By default, Keep Connect Type G tries up to 3 resets, then waits 4 hours before trying again. This stops endless reboots while your provider fixes the outage. You can change both values in Advanced Settings.

1 review for Keep Connect Automatic Router Rebooter (Type G Plug)

  1. David (verified owner) –

    I use my Internet to remotely monitor my house when away from home.
    2 weeks ago I installed the system using the default settings.
    While on holiday last week – Virgin ISP connection failed 3 times – each time the Keep Connect reset the router immediately.
    Last night while watching streaming TV – the ISP link failed again but this time I was able to watch the Keep Connect promptly recover my connection.
