Network Connectivity Case Study: Rising to the Challenge
Recently, a third-party network outage put our chargers to the test. When a SIM provider’s outage disconnected hundreds of chargers, AmpUp’s team detected, resolved, and actively communicated the issue to impacted site hosts. This case illustrates our approach: when challenges arise, AmpUp springs into action — without you having to worry.
- Swift Detection — October 22, 3:55am
Leveraging our remote diagnostics tools, we pinpointed the affected chargers and isolated the issue with a Network Connectivity Platform provider. Our system’s ability to analyze OCPP logs in real time confirmed the sudden disconnection pattern, allowing us to hone in on the cause. - Focused Diagnostics — October 22, 4:38am
AmpUp's monitoring detected an anomaly, flagging 299 chargers offline. Our on-call engineer was automatically alerted by our anomaly detection system. We proactively reached out to impacted site hosts, updating them on resolution progress and estimated times to restoration. - Root Cause Identification — October 22, 5:14am
We traced the source to a single Network Connectivity Platform provider, whose SIM-based outage impacted most of the affected chargers. Our AI-powered proactive monitoring tools enabled us to detect this before the network provider issued any alerts. - Collaborative Resolution — October 22, 8:24am
While waiting for the SIM provider’s resolution, our engineers devised a workaround to reset network connections on individual chargers remotely. - Continuous Improvement — October 22-23
Following this incident, we fine-tined our status monitoring, driver communication protocols, and automated recovery procedures, further improving AmpUp’s responsive, reliable support network.
