Gateway & router support

Network Weather automatically detects your router and pulls in as much detail as it can — often without needing to log in at all.

How it works

Network Weather automatically identifies your router brand and model when it starts up — no configuration needed. It looks at several signals from your network and picks the best match. Once it knows what you have, it starts pulling in data right away.

Integration levels

Deep Integration

The richest experience. Once you provide your router login, Network Weather can show you every connected device with WiFi signal strength, mesh network health, internet connection diagnostics, security findings, and more. See Router Login for setup.

Basic Integration

Network Weather can show useful information like firmware version, internet connection status, or mesh role — but doesn't have access to per-device details like signal strength. This is usually because the router doesn't offer that data to outside apps.

Detection Only

Network Weather identifies the brand and model of your router. You still get baseline data like your external IP address, traffic totals, and internet connection status if your router has UPnP enabled (most do).

Deep Integration

Full network visibility with login — connected devices, signal strength, mesh health, security findings, and more.

Cisco Model None yet
Any UPnP router External IP, traffic data, link speed, port forwarding rules Any compatible router

My router isn't listed

If your router has UPnP enabled (most do), Network Weather still collects baseline data automatically. You won't get per-device details, but internet connection status, traffic data, and port forwarding information still work.
