UPC Connect Box	Instructions on how to integrate UPC ConnectBox into Home Assistant.	Presence Detection	0.36	@pvizeli @fabaff	upc_connect	Local Polling	device_tracker	integration

The upc_connect platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to a Connect Box from Liberty Global (also known as UPC Cablecom in Switzerland) which is an Internet provider in Switzerland, Austria, the Netherlands (under Ziggo) and Hungary (under Vodafone).

This integration works by logging into the router with a password. The router can only have one active session at any time, so if you want to access your router settings then stop Home Assistant first.

To use a Connect Box in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
  - platform: upc_connect
    password: PASSWORD

{% configuration %} password: description: The password of your router. required: true type: string host: description: The IP address of your router. required: false default: 192.168.0.1 type: string {% endconfiguration %}

See the device tracker integration page for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
