TingFire Monitor being blocked?

Hello,

I have a TingFire monitor on my electrical system. It stopped sending info to the company email/server.

The company is requesting I send the text/email below. I have verified all the open ports and Firewall settings on my Arris router.

Thank you and please read the text below.

Dear ISP Support:

I have a Ting electrical monitoring and fire safety sensor connected in my home WiFi. I rely on Ting to help keep my home safe from fire hazards. Ting was initially connected and working fine, but now Ting is not communicating properly with the servers which process data from the device. You can learn more about this device here: tingfire.com
The Ting technical support representative provided the details below regarding what is required in order for Ting to communicate over the following TCP/IP channels and talk to their servers:

• Communication Protocol: UDP
• Communication Port: 9500 and 9503

AND

• Communication Protocol: TCP
• Communication Port: 443 (HTTPS) and 80 (HTTP)

I have checked my router and verified that it is not blocking any traffic and would like to have your help to troubleshoot this issue.

Please confirm that you are not blocking Ting from communicating and email confirmation back to me.

Sincerely,


Steve

The issue was only resolved by returning the original TingFire and getting a new unit.

Thanks to Xfinity for helping me verify that the issue was not ISP related.

@xf1​   That's good to hear.    Though for me, mine started working again, on 3/13, 4 days after it stopped communicating, and has been fine ever since.   So I'm not sure what the issue was, and if Xfinity did anything on their end to resolve, but it's working, that's all that matters.

To original poster.  Did you have any success with this?   My Ting Sensor also stopped communicating on 3/9

seems like it might not be coincidence
