An offline inverter does not necessarily mean that the unit has become damaged or won’t work anymore. Because of regulations put in place by governments and safety standards, inverters can regularly turn themselves off to prevent issues with compliance and hardware.
The solarweb site is saying there is an update available for the inverter. Could also try power cycling it but doubt that would help. Nobody ever seen similar issue? As mentioned just says 'No devices available' under the history-devices pulldown on solarweb site, even though under settings-components the datalogger is online and looks all ok.
Since it's SolarWeb that's offline, rather than an 'inverter' failure, I think this query is best covered by an existing thread here – /forum-replies.cfm?t=2334539 – where, apart from checking it's indeed your connection to blame, there's numerous posts on how to check your data link and remedy end-user problems.
