Connectivity Options

Sentinel can transmit data using four different connectivity methods:

WiFi

  • Best for areas with reliable networks.

  • Sentinel knows the login access for 'sentinel-net'

    • Set up a modem or your home wifi to 'sentinel-net' with these instructions

Cellular (3G/4G/5G)

  • Works anywhere with a mobile signal.

  • Requires activated SIM card.

Satellite

  • Best for remote locations with no cellular/WiFi.

  • Requires additional hardware (Satellite Modem).

LoRa (Long-Range Radio)

  • Ideal for low-power, long-range communication.

  • Requires LoRa gateway nearby.

Choosing the Best Option: If WiFi or Cellular is available, use it for faster insight delivery. If not, consider Satellite or LoRa.
