The Problem

Your cable modem tracks signal quality data — how strong your connection is, how clean the signal is, whether errors are accumulating. It's all buried in the modem's web interface. But that data isn't actionable.

  • No history — you see a snapshot of right now, not what happened at 2am when your connection dropped
  • No alerts — the modem won't tell you when signal quality degrades or errors start climbing
  • No proof — when you call your ISP, "the internet is slow" isn't evidence they can act on
  • No correlation — you can't connect "Zoom dropped at 3pm" with signal issues you weren't watching

The Solution

Cable Modem Monitor pulls signal data directly from your modem and brings it into Home Assistant. Track connection health over time with historical graphs that catch the problems you'd otherwise miss.

Cable Modem Status Dashboard
Connection status, uptime, latency, and error counts at a glance
Downstream Power Levels Graph
Signal strength across all channels — spot imbalances instantly
Signal-to-Noise Ratio Graph
Signal quality tracking helps identify issues before they cause drops
Modem Latency Graph
Response time monitoring catches slowdowns as they happen
Error Tracking Graph
Error trends reveal developing problems over days and weeks

Why It Matters

Proof when you need it

Show your ISP actual data — signal quality dropping, error counts climbing. Evidence is harder to dismiss than "it feels slow."

Patterns over time

Catch the 2am drops and intermittent issues. Problems that vanish by the time you check are captured in the graphs.

One integration, 15 modems

Arris, Motorola, Netgear, Technicolor — write once, support many. Each parser is tested against real device captures.

Home Assistant automation

Set alerts for signal degradation. Get notified before problems become outages.
