About Our PBS Status Page Integration

PBS is a Smart Home solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since March 2021. Over the past about 2 years, we have collected data on on more than 212 outages that affected PBS users. When PBS publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 72 components and 3 groups using 4 different statuses: up, warn, down, and maintenance which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

More than 100 StatusGator users monitor PBS to get notified when it's down, is under maintenance, or has an outage. This makes it one of the most popular smart home services monitored on our platform. We've sent more than 200 notifications to our users about PBS incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind.

If PBS is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.

Warn notifications are used when PBS is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

PBS posts separate notifications for planned maintenance work. StatusGator will notify subscribers when PBS enters a pre-planned maintenance window, keeping you up to date.

Since PBS publishes a feed of proactive maintenance events on their status page, StatusGator will collect information about these events. Maintenance events for all your services can be viewed within StatusGator as a unified feed.

When PBS posts issues on their status page, we collect the main headline message and include that brief information or overview in notifications to StatusGator subscribers.

When PBS has outages or other service-impacting events on their status page, we pull down the detailed informational updates and include them in notifications. These messages often include the current details about how the problem is being mitigated, or when the next update will occur.

Because PBS has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is PBS down today?

According to its status page PBS is currently up. You can check the most recent events in the 'Recent Outages and Issues' section above.

How can I get notified when PBS is not working or have outages?

StatusGator can send you instant alerts by email, SMS, Slack, and more.

How can I find out if PBS is having issues?

There are two main options: You can check the PBS status page or you can subscribe to StatusGator for free alerts and notifications when their status page changes.

PBS status page says the service is up, but I'm having issues. What's wrong?

There may be several reasons for that:

  • An outage that hasn't been communicated yet via the PBS status page.
  • Some local issues with a small group of accounts on the service side.
  • Technical issues on your side, or problems with your software or ISP.
  • A misconfiguration on your side.

We recommend contacting PBS customer support while checking everything on your side. You can also try Tweeting at them via @PBS on Twitter. Or visit their official status page or website:

Where do you get the official PBS status?

We use the official PBS status page. Here are links to their status page and other helpful links.
