Systems and methods for correcting network connectivity of a connected device are provided. Such systems and methods can include a mobile device determining whether the mobile device can connect to and communicate with a connected device, and the mobile device determining whether the mobile device is connected to a home network. When the mobile device cannot connect to and communicate with the connected device, but is connected to the home network, such systems and methods can include the mobile device transmitting or displaying messages documenting a troubleshooting process to restore the network connectivity between the mobile device and the connected device. Contents of the messages can be dependent on whether some or none of current network connectivity information related to a current network connection between the mobile device and the home network matches stored network connectivity information.

Systems and methods for reducing false alarms and providing a central station with information regarding occupants in a monitored region using a GPS location of a mobile device are provided. Some methods can include receiving a first signal indicative of a detected alarm condition in the monitored region, responsive to receiving the first signal, transmitting a second signal to the mobile device, receiving a third signal from the mobile device indicative of the GPS location of the mobile device, and based on a location of the monitored region and the third signal indicative of the GPS location of the mobile device, determining a likelihood of whether the detected alarm condition is real or false. Additionally or alternatively, some methods can include receiving the signal from the mobile device indicative of the GPS location of the mobile device at predetermined periodic time intervals and irrespective of the detected alarm condition in the monitored region.
