What staged recovery actions can be designed into a router before sending a technician to a distant site?

A staged sequence might first retry the data session, then reset the cellular interface, renew addressing, change to the alternate SIM or WAN, and finally reboot the router. If the connected equipment can be safely power-cycled through an approved relay, that may be a later step.

Each action should have delays, attempt limits and logging so the system does not loop endlessly. Send alerts before and after disruptive steps where possible. Firmware or configuration changes should generally not be part of an automatic emergency sequence. The safe order depends on the equipment and process at the site.
