Manage Sensor & Service Alerts While Your Hub Is Offline
If your Hub loses Internet connection, any subsequent sensor or service alerts triggered will not be visible in the Control Centre until the Hub reconnects.
However, you can view and acknowledge these alerts via the local Hub UI in the meantime.
The Cloud LED on the Hub will appear red if your Hub is not connected to the Internet.
