In that case you're probably better off w/ a cronjob that checks Shodan for information on your IP once a day. Doing direct IP lookups is free so you wouldn't need to pay. You won't get the immediate, real-time feedback but it's fairly straight-forward to do a daily IP lookup. You could also change/ update your private firehose every day though that would require a bit more technical skill. You could basically do: MYIP=`shodan myip` shodan alert create home-network $MYIP shodan stream --alerts=all That would create an alert for your current IP and then subscribe to any events.
