Intellicenter.com down.........AGAIN

This is getting ridiculous. Every weekend for the past several and counting.... Anyone know what the heck is going on?!? I don’t mean to be harsh, but how hard is it to keep a basic website up in 2021?

It’s ridiculous. How can a publicly traded company have such a pathetic service? Even small mom and pops software businesses can keep a server more reliable in their garage.

Not surprising, unfortunately. These pool equipment companies still stuck in the 80s technology wise don't know the first thing about software development in the 21st century (as displayed by how poorly constructed all their apps and automation are).

Hi Wes,
Maybe I'm missing something, but why are you wasting your time (and raising your blood pressure ), attempting to login to IntelliCenter.com when you are running nodejs-poolController/dashPanel?

What function is there on intelliCenter.com that you can't perform on njspC?
The only things that I can think of, off the top of my head is configuring "Pentair Alerts" (which are frighteningly unreliable anyway) and configuring Security (which normally is a one time thing).

njspC/dP works on all platforms we have (including our Apple Watches), so I just don't see the need.

In addition (but maybe it's just me), I find njspC/dP much more user friendly, much better layout, graphics, navigation etc., etc.

Seriously, the only time I have to login to intelliCenter.com (if I can and if I have the patience to constantly wait for different screens to load), is on occasion when I login to someone else's system who I am assisting with an initial setup.

Now that njspC is much more mainstream and so much more reliable than Pentair's web client, I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone would want to endure the unreliable Pentair option.

Take care...

I am paying for procrastinating on the port forwarding setup. I use it at home but don’t have it set up to pass through yet. That will get fixed tomorrow.

Ah... Right, I gotcha... Sorry, I was assuming you were at home.
Don't feel bad, you're not the only one procrastinating on that front.

Let us know how it goes.
Thanks...

Hey Wes,
Regarding the whole port forwarding thing, maybe checkout this suggestion from @cmc0619
I'm already onboard with this and working great so far...

I finally had an hour or so to install and configure this. Fantastic, elegant solution. Thanks for the tip! My pool controller is now up and running and I've got external access to boot.
