I do understand the use case. I also think that I understand when you write “Homey goes offline”. The WLAN/LAN connection of Homey to the home network is interrupted, correct?  
I don’t have any of the “Net Scan” apps mentioned so far, but I assume that they only monitor the internet connection of the home network, or other devices that are connected to the home network. The WLAN/LAN connection of Homey itself is not monitored by the apps.

That was also the reason why I mentioned G. Dijker and his **sysInternals** app. This app monitors the WLAN/LAN connection of Homey itself.  
Maybe you should ask in the appropriate app topic if this function can be added:

[[APP][Pro] sysInternals - Shows Homey’s System Internals](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-sysinternals-shows-homey-s-system-internals/78650)

That’s right. But what if he or other users use WLAN devices?

So the request definitely makes sense to me.  
Example flows:

_ **When…** _  
– Homey goes offline (WLAN/LAN!!!)  
_ **And…** _  
– Timer, stopwatch, transition is running  
_ **Then…** _  
– Stopp timer, stopwatch, transition

_ **When…** _  
– Homey goes online again  
_ **And…** _  
– Timer, stopwatch, transition is paused  
_ **Then…** _  
– Then continue timer, stopwatch, transition

Btw, how is the HP23 connected to the home network? Via WLAN or LAN?

However, I also recommend to contact the support.
