This is the latest version of the IP Switch, EZ-72b (ezOutlet5)

The Single Outlet IP Switch allows you to monitor your network's connection status from anywhere. This remote IP power switch connects to your router and is designed to automatically check if the network connection is online. It can then reboot any connected piece of equipment either on demand, on a schedule or automatically when the internet connection fails.  Users can also remotely turn on, turn off, or reset the outlet via the Android/iOS App or cloud management site, making it an easy tool for remotely managing offline equipment.

Remote reboot switches are ideal for home users who periodically have to manually power-cycle their router to regain internet connectivity, as well as IT professionals who need to automatically or remotely reset devices. In addition to resetting networks and devices, you can use the 5Gstore Single Outlet IP Switch to create an automatic power schedule for your network, or to prevent your connection from timing out or going dormant.

*The iPhone/Android application is required to update the firmware on the IP Switch. All other controls can be accessed either via the app, the cloud site, or the local web interface.

NOTE: the single-oulet switch cannot be configured for custom external or internal ping targets. If this is a feature that your application requires, please see the Dual Outlet IP Switch, which allows changes to be made to both external and internal IP addresses.

The primary feature of the unit is very simple: it monitors an internet connection and power-cycles the connected devices if the internet connection goes down. This simple feature alone can be very useful if your mobile broadband or cable/DSL connection drops, and all you need to do is reset the router to re-gain connectivity - this will automatically reset the router for you, without anyone having to visit the location and manually cycle power.

Only customers who bought this item from 5Gstore can write a review - these are all verified 5Gstore purchases

Date Added: 09/26/2024 by Paul I. (MOUNT HERMON, CA)
While the power switch was received in good order, like other reviwers commented, only a single sheet of connection instructions was included. A reference to the Cloud4UIS app and website could not provide step by step set up or a detailed manual. The app is painfully basic, is not user interactive and references a $60 annual support subscription to access a system activity log. Within a week of receiving the product, I received a marketing call from a 5Gstore rep who agreed to track down some answers for me. He replied with an email containing a link that would download the full manual. Not so. The link directed me to the 5Gstore Contact form where I could post a question to the support team. I still don't have the manual and although I have lights showing on the device, I am not convinced that it is actually functioning. This is a basic failure of product support, charging $60 for a feature essential to the product and a lack of response to customer issues.

5Gstore Comments:
Hello Paul,

I've taken the time to read your feedback and to review your order and communication with our team. We want everyone to be satisfied with their purchase and have an excellent service experience when they interact with our Sales and Support team. I do see that we reached out earlier this week with a courtesy call to check on how your order is meeting your expectations and to ensure you are aware of the 1 year free phone support 5Gstore offers with every hardware purchase. It appears that was the first mention of set up questions. Our representative provided some set up guidance over the phone and followed up with an email recap. It does sound like the link he emailed may not have opened correctly but another representative has emailed you a PDF version. For every hardware purchase an email of support guides and documents is sent to the purchaser and I did check to verify this email was sent to you the day your order shipped. Our team of knowledgeable sales and support representatives works hard to create and share guides, tip sheets, and troubleshooting docs, as well as be available for a free year of phone support and a lifetime of email support for anyone who purchases with us to reach out with questions.

Regarding the cloud management, Cloud4UIS app or web portal, while this is a free service with a purchase of the Switch, with the single outlet there are some advanced features that are only available with an additional purchase. The dual outlet model does offer some of those features, such as an event log, for free.

If the guides, tools, and advice sent to you are not enough to answer your questions we encourage you to give us a call or reach out via email so one of our sales and support representatives can provide further guidance or support.

Thank you,

5Gstore

So far so good. I was purchasing these from Amazon for same price but they were out of stock. I ran across these and exactly same product less the OEM packaging and instructions - not that I needed either so works fine for me.

This product works as described. We have a second several hundred miles away. This device will reboot our modem if internet is lost. We also have it set to automatically reboot once a week. Now we always have connection to our second home's security cameras etc. It is very easy to set up too. 5 stars!

I'm sure product works OK, but because it apparently was manufactured by a different company than the two outlet version, the management SW for them do not seem to be compatible. I'm working with support to see if I can manage them both via PC or both via the Phone app, but as of now, I can't manage both by the same platform. Hopefully it is my error.

5Gstore Comments:
Both the single and dual outlet switches are made by the same manufacturer and can be managed by the same mobile application or cloud site. I see you have an open support ticket with us now, we will be happy to get you up and running!

The EZ-62b IP auto-switch is a great little piece of hardware. It seems to work better than a previous model, the EZ-22b which was a little hit and miss. I've tested the EZ-62b extensively and for the money, I'm really impressed.

Furthermore, I'm in Canada, and it still arrived in less than 24 hours from my time of ordering.

Thanks very much!

Super, just dont power it off from the app. Glad i was at home as i had a very difficult job getting it working again. I have now chosen to block this option.

Works great
I installed it to manage the internet router for our second home, which had intermittent loss of internet.
Installation was a little tricky because the photo in the online directions did not exactly match the device. But no issues.

This handy IP switch solved all my problems of a remotely controlled camera going off-line by allowing a reboot--thanks so much!!!

i see that this product is no longer available... but it does exactly what I need! Is there one that does the same thing which is still available?

Unfortunately, we do not have an alternative SMS capable switch at this time. If you're interested in remote power control, please review our single and dual outlet remote power IP switches. While these do not have a built in cellular connection, you could pair one with a cellular router. Please reach out to our sales team with any additional questions you may have!

Is there a mobile app available for Cloud4UIS.com on Android and iOS?

Yes, you can download ezDevice for Android or iOS devices.

How do I add my ezOutlet device to the Cloud4UIS portal?

Please refer to the user manual available here: https://5gstore.com/ipswitchdownloads

Can I plug the 5Gstore Remote Power Switch into a surge protector?

Yes, Surge protection can be used with the IP switch.

Can the ezOutlet device be configured to report power cycle events?

The 5Gstore dual outlet remote power IP switch would be required for reports and email notifications. See here: https://5gstore.com/1/8897

Is there any way to have the 5Gstore Remote Power switch check a specific port on a device, rather than an IP address?

The Remote Power IP Switch is only able to ping to IP address, not Ports.

Would the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switches be suitable to remotely control power to a 20a power supply unit that powers a 2way base ham radio?

No, the max on each Switch model is 10 amps (5a per outlet on the dual outlet model).

Does the app, EZDevice, allow multiple user accounts?

The ezDevice app allows users to share devices across accounts.

On the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch, what happens if I accidentally use the web interface to Power OFF the modem that the device is connected to by ethernet?

You would lose access to the remote device if this was the case. By changing the mode to reset only, you can avoid this issue so you can only issue reset commands, not separate off/on commands.

How do I change my email address on Cloud4UIS.com/ ezDevice app?

Each Cloud4UIS account is linked and can only be created thru a verified email account. It cannot be changed.

Can I upgrade firmware on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch while connected to a modem or router?

You can upgrade while deployed, however this will cause the connected devices to power cycle while the upgrade completes. Ideally doing your upgrade during off hour times is the best option.

Why might a user adjust the ping interval on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch?

Users would normally adjust the ping interval if they have a connection that is slow to respond OR they are using a metered data plan from a cellular provider, for example, and want to avoid additional usage fees.

Can I view multiple 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switches from one webpage?

Yes, you can do this by using the manufacturer's cloud service - cloud4UIS.com. There is also a mobile app called ezDevice, which is available for iOS and Android.

Does the ezOutlet work with a combo modem/router device?

Yes.

Does the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch (ezOutlet) need an active internet connection if it is just set up to reset a device on a schedule?

No, but it will require an Ethernet connection to configure the schedule via its local web user interface page. The schedule will also continue to work even after removing its Ethernet connection to your router.

Can I set the 5Gstore Remote Power IP switch outlet to reset on a specific day and time?

Yes, the 5Gtore Remote Power IP switches support a schedule feature.

Is it possible to change the name of the 5Gstore Remote Power IP switch after setup?

Yes, the hostname of the device can be changed.

How does the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch work when modem/ router is connected to a UPS/ Battery Backup?

The Remote Power IP switch is meant to perform an automatic reboot of your router/modem (or other device) when an internet connection is lost. Of course when units are on battery backup, they are unable to power reset as needed. So, when you have a UPS in place, you need to setup in this order: UPS -> IP Switch power supply -> Modem / Router plugged into the 2 outlets - this will allow the switch to cut power properly while still maintaining battery backup for the Switch itself.

If my Internet goes down for an extended period (e.g. 3-4 days), would the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch keep trying to reboot the modem and router in an endless loop or is there a default timeout?

The IP switch will reset once the Internet becomes active again after an extended internet outage. How many times it resets will depend upon how you configure the setting that controls how many resets it will perform when Internet outage is detected.

If my 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch stops working due to lightning strike, is there a fuse to be replaced?

Yes, the Switch has a replaceable fuse. Refer to our support document called "Remote Power Switch - Changing the Fuse" for instructions on how to do this.

Can you configure a static address on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch?

Yes, you can configure a static address.

Does the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch offer surge protection like a power strip?

No it does not. It does come with a removable fuse and a backup though. In the event the 5A (dual outlet) or 10A (single outlet) power it supports is exceeded, it will blow the fuse. We would still recommend having a surge protector in place to protect your device(s) from any damage.

Will the ezOutlet remote power IP switch work in Italy (220v)?

Yes, that is within the input power specs of this device (125-250Vac). You would need a converter as we do not have International power supplies available.

Can I schedule an outlet on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch to turn off on a specific date?

Yes, this is possible. Refer to the user manual under Configuration -> Schedule for instructions OR contact our support team for assistance.

How much bandwidth does the Remote Power IP switch (ezOutlet) use on a daily/weekly/monthly level?

It may differ depending on your configuration (i.e. how frequently it is sending ping requests) as well as how often you may be accessing it remotely. We've seen anywhere from about 2MB to 13MB of usage per month and about 0.230 (230KB) to 0.656MB (656KB) per day.

How can I access the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch remotely?

The dual outlet switch supports DDNS settings, OR you can use the manufacturer's cloud service, Cloud4UIS, for remote access to any models.

How should I setup the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch when I have a separate modem and router?

The 1 Outlet Remote Power Switch would not be able to set a delay between 2 devices as it only has 1 outlet. Our 2 Outlet Remote Power Switch would be appropriate in this case. The delay you can set between outlet 1 (where you would attach your modem) and outlet 2 (where you would attach your router) is 1 to 600 seconds.

Can I setup and control the 5Gstore Single Outlet Remote Power IP Switch (ezOutlet) without a smartphone?

Yes! While a smartphone is the easiest way to configure the outlet, it is not required. You can log into the web administration page of the outlet from a computer, and enable the automatic reset from there. Or, you can log in through the cloud management site at https://cloud4uis.com

I have a second home out of state with security cams. For some reason the LAN on it locks up and needs to be rebooted. Not sure if it's caused by the router or the security system. Should I get the 5Gstore dual or single outlet remote power IP switch?

If just rebooting the router resolves this issue for you, the single outlet model should be all you need. If you need to reboot both the modem and router, and even the security system, go with the Dual Outlet model. Both models can be accessed via iOS/Android app called ezDevice.

Can I connect a power strip to the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch so that multiple devices can ALL be power-cycled and/or remotely shut down as a group?

The single and dual outlet IP Switches can have power strips attached as long as you do not exceed the 10amp output (5A per outlet on the dual model).

How can I link/connect multiple 5Gstore Single Outlet Remote Power IP Switches (ezOutlet) from a single ethernet wall outlet?

You would need to add a network switch. One wall outlet can be split into multiple ethernet ports.

http://5gstore.com/product/3571_5_port_switch.html

Can I disable the auto reset feature on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch and use it ONLY for remote power control?

Yes, you have the option to turn the auto-reset function on or off..

Can I use the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch to remotely power on my PC?

You can use this to cut and provide power to the PC's power supply. However, if your PC requires you to press a power button to turn it on, this won't help there. You'll need to check your PC BIOS settings to see if it can automatically turn on when it has power.

Can you turn off the automatic reboot on the ezOutlet if internet connection drops and just use this for remote rebooting of a device?

Yes, by default the automatic reboot is disabled. You can choose to enable this, or simply use it with the application to remotely power on and off devices.

Can the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch be set to automatically power cycle every hour?

Yes, you can use the schedule feature to configure this.

What is the warranty on the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch?

There is a standard 1-year manufacturer's warranty that covers defects and failures not related to misuse/abuse. You will need to contact 5Gstore support (833-547-8673 x3 or support@5gstore.com) for a replacement. Shipping fees are not included.

What sites does the ezOutlet ping?

The websites include Google, Yahoo, Bing and Ask as well as those sites' physical IP addresses and NTP time servers. These are not visible to the user because they cannot be changed. However, you may disable those and use a single IP address that you CAN configure. You also have the option to have it send as a Ping or HTTP request.

Can I control the ezOutlet from a remote host with a script (e.g. telnet, http request)?

No, you can only control the outlet via an app or web browser.

Does the 5Gstore Remote Power IP Switch support TELNET and SSH protocol?

No they do not.

How does the ezoutlet/ 5Gstore single outlet remote power IP Switch differ from the dual outlet/ UIS model?

They do the same general function, however major differences on the single outlet include: the inability to manually configure more than 1 website or IP address to ping, less options for configuration, no Google Hangouts or Skype, no email notifications, and no dynamic DNS support. In order to access either switch, they both use a mobile app called ezDevice as well as the website, Cloud4UIS.com.
