I often cannot connect to my cameras via the BI app.
I will get the message "Unable to Connect. Please try again. ...Reason: Unable to reach server."
I do not think this is the fault of the BI app most of the time. Usually I will edit and click to refresh my WAN IP address and I'm in ,(aka my DSL provider has changed up my IP again).
But other times that does not correct the issue. Now I have pretty crappy DSL internet service which has regular intermittent connection issues and also a very low, (<.5Mbps) upload speed. So I usually assume my DSL service is the issue.
That brings me to my question.
Is there a way for me to generically test from my phone if MY home's internet service is down, independent of what app, like BI is trying to connect, so I can be sure it is an issue unrelated to BI or any other app I am using?
