  • Mobile Link for Generators
  • Generac home standby generators with a supported Mobile Link Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi/Ethernet, 4G LTE, or Generac Connectivity Cellular Accessory device
  • Customers who want to connect a generator before choosing a Mobile Link subscription plan

Answer

Homeowners can create a Mobile Link account and establish a connection to their generator without purchasing a Premium subscription plan. Completing this initial setup is recommended to confirm that the generator has a reliable connection at the installation site. Verify that the connection is successful before selecting a subscription plan.

Basic monitoring is available for supported Mobile Link generator devices without purchasing a Premium subscription plan. Premium subscription plans are available for additional features, including real-time email, text, and push notifications. Mobile Link offers Basic and Premium options for supported Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi/Ethernet, 4G LTE, and cellular-connected generators.

Note: Basic monitoring is available for supported Mobile Link generator devices. Basic monitoring is not available for the Generac Fuel Monitor.
