Question about iRobot Roomba Combo i8
Hello, How does this robot manage once the internet connection is cut? We can't afford to leave it connected to the internet (local network yes) but not to the internet. For reasons of privacy and security of our site. Please give us as much information as possible. What functionality no longer works? Do the automatic cleaning cycles work? Is it possible to use the Wi-Fi App with a local network only?
Hello,
in general, there are two options in the robot configuration. The robot must have a permanent connection to the Wi-Fi, then it works in fully automatic mode, or by purchasing special sensor gates, we manually define the zones where the robot can or cannot enter at a given time. There is no other option. Kind regards.
Hello, my robot always has internet. So I don't know.

Hello 99maki
Thank you for your question. Yes, once the calendar is configured, it works even without an Internet connection. However, it needs an Internet connection to create the programme, for example using a second mobile phone and a hotspot.
On the other hand, it is not possible to give manual cleaning commands to the robot via the application if it does not have a current connection. So you can't manually start cleaning via the app, for example while at work or shopping.
If you have any questions, please contact us by phone so that we can provide you with better assistance :) You can reach us on +41 62 746 06 74.
Best regards,
Your iRobot team
