UPnP/IGD
upnp
The UPnP/IGD integration enables you to collect network statistics from your router such as bytes in/out and packets in/out, uptime, WAN IP address, and WAN connectivity status. This information is provided by the UPnP/Internet Gateway Device (IGD) Protocol if enabled on your router.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |

binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) |
What people report
Works with routers implementing Internet Gateway Device; non-IGD devices such as access points are not supported, and rediscovery can fail on some routers after upgrades.
