Electrical plug fall detection in a wireless device

Abstract

Systems and methods for detecting a first level disengagement of the wireless access point electrical plug with the electrical outlet and providing a notification responsive to the first level of disengagement of the electrical plug with the electrical outlet. Detecting a second level of disengagement that is larger than the first level disengagement of the electrical plug with the electrical outlet and turning off the power supply responsive to the second level disengagement. The response to the second level disengagement of the electrical plug with the electrical outlet includes turning off the power supply such that the one or more additional access points take over the Wi-Fi access from the access point. The sensor can be either mechanical or optical and the distance of detecting the first level and second level disengagement is measured in millimeters.
