Netgear Armor Flags Communication Alert Threat From Sense Device

General Sense Discussion
1

Hi,
I get alerts that my Sense device is periodically trying to connect to somewhere on the internet. Message is: Anomaly.Ports.Outgoing. I am assuming this is a normal operation between Sense device calling home. Can anyone help ,me understand if this is a concern or should be considered normal and legitimate.
Thank you Dan

It’s normal as Sense transmits data to cloud.

Might want to list port and IP if known so others can note.

Some discussion about the sites that Sense talks to here - more than just Sense.

Of note is that Sense offers the ability to turn off the hardcoded use of 1.1.1.1. Info here and here.

I got tired of my logs filling with warnings about it and have a request in to support to disable it for my device.
