Mobile Link monitoring costs
Homeowners can monitor their home standby generators using the Mobile Link for Generators app or web portal. While a Mobile Link account is not required for generator operation, subscribing to a Premium monitoring plan allows for advanced features, including remote access, alerts, and performance tracking.

*If I enroll via the web, can I still monitor in the app?
Yes! Whether you enroll via the web (app.mobilelinkgen.com) or enroll in the app store, you will still be able to monitor in the Mobile Link app. The only difference between web and app enrollment is the billing process.
Connectivity requirements
Before purchasing a subscription, homeowners should confirm they have reliable Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity at the generator location.
- Wi-Fi requirements: A dedicated 2.4 GHz network with support for 802.11 b/g/n protocols is required.
- Cellular (formerly 4G LTE): For areas with weak or no Wi-Fi signal, a cellular-enabled device may be required.
Device compatibility & costs
While newer generators (typically 2018 and later) include onboard Wi-Fi, others may require additional devices to enable Mobile Link monitoring.
