Northern WiFi is an app that allows you to have absolute control over your homes network, commonly referred to as managed WiFi. With the Northern WiFi app you have a vast array of controls, personalizations and safety measures to customize your network to work best for how you like to connect.

Core Functions

  • Change or reset your Wi-Fi network name or password directly from the app
  • See the devices currently using your Wi-Fi
  • Categorize your devices (e.g. personal devices, work devices, mobile devices, gaming devices.)
  • Pause the internet for any device, at any time.
  • Run a speed test (GigaSpire only) to verify the speed you are getting is the speed you are paying for.
  • Receive updates about any planned network maintenance, or upcoming community events

Advanced features

  • Create routines for scheduled downtime (i.e. bedtime or limited access to gaming devices during school time).
  • Create a temporary or shareable guest network without sharing your main network name and
    password. Great for house guests, visitors, babysitters, house sitters, or pet sitters.
  • Text the guest network login information directly from the app.
