WiFi Disconnected

Alert users to weak signals and lost connections with on-screen Autonomous DEM (ADEM) WiFi disconnected notifications.
WiFi allows your computers and mobile devices such as smart phones or smart watches to connect to the internet. Your device connects to a WiFi router which in turn connects to a local WiFi network that lets your device connect your device to the internet. If the signal strength of the WiFi network that you are connected to becomes very weak, your WiFi router no longer communicates with the WiFi network and your device gets disconnected from WiFi. This could also happen if your WiFi router begins to malfunction. When your WiFi gets disconnected, unless you have a wired connection (using an ethernet cable), you will be disconnected from your internet. You will receive the following notification on your device.

Clicking on the notification opens the Access Experience UI opens. It provides details about the notification along with some suggestions to fix the stated problem.
The Review in Access Experience link opens a time series historical chart displaying the status of your WiFi connection during the last 3 hours. A slider bar placed at the right end of the chart by default shows you the most recent status. Move your mouse sideways on the chart across various points in time, to understand the historical status of the active area. Depending on where you mouse over and click in the chart, you can view the status and recommendation that was indicated at that specific time within the 3-hour window. The red dots indicate that a notification was sent to your device at that time where the dot appears.
To check for historical data indicating if or when the internet was down and a notification was sent to you in the past 3-hour window, click on the Internet tab. If there is a red dot on the chart, it indicates that a Disconnected Internet notification was sent at the time where the red dot appears.
