Is an internet connection required?

YES!!! I installed this thermostat to be able to control it remotely from Florida. However, if you place your internet, phone & cable (like Comcast bundle) on SEASONAL HOLD while you're away from home, you will lose the internet connection & will not be able to control the device. The heat & cool systems still work but you have no control remotely. COMCAST will not leave internet ONLY activated. It's all 3 bundled services on or off. BUMMER!!

Yes & No - The thermostat will work at the location without the Internet. If you would like the capability to remotely monitor it, the location where the thermostat is located must have the thermostat connected to the Internet or you cannot access it remotely. This question is not clearly defined- hence we bought it thinking we could monitor it remotely even though we did not have Internet at the location of the thermostat in the winter - FALSE - You must have the Internet where the thermostat is located or you cannot monitor/control it remotely. The thermostat works fine as a thermostat without the Internet. Yes & No - The thermostat will work at the location without the Internet.

You will need a Wi-Fi internet connection to use it as a remotely operated thermostat.

internet is required ONLY IF you want to use the wifi capabilities of the thermostat.Functionally everything can be done manually from the unit without wifi.With wifi though, you significantly enhance the convenience capabilities.

No, but why spend the money on a "connected" thermostat if you're not going to connect it? Just buy a cheaper programmable one.

That's the whole reason for buying a wifi thermostat so you can operate it from anywhere from your cell phone. It works great. Dee

Does not need internet connection (except maybe to update maps if needed).. Used this device in Italy, worked like a charm... had no problems... Good luck !

I don't think you need computer. But you need to have a WI Fi modem available.

If by this you mean an internet provider, yes and no. The answer is "yes" if you want to use the internet. The answer is "no" if the internet is not a necessity.

You don't need the internet connection as the data is already on the disc. The internet connection is required for any additional DLC you may want to purchase or to play online.

No Internet required. It amplifies your signal from the network tower. It provided an additional bar for me. Don't expect much from it.

No, but you might want to get one anyway. This phone system is just regular telephone cables. You don't even need an internet connection if you don't want to use one. However, not knowing the quality of your connection, you might want to get a DSL filter to make your DSL connection better.

I don't know exactly what you mean, Its a software, so it doesn't require an internet connection. You just install it to your pc.

No, Reader Rabbit does not require any internet connection for product use. You will need to leave the disc in the drive to run the program. Product registration may be done online.

Hi Robert,No, the phone does not need Internet connection. It's a simple phone plug in. I purchased itfor my 89 year old Mom and she loves it.It's an easy set up! I hope that answers your question.

You won't need "internet" but you'll need the base station and a wireless network. Your phone or the remote you can but will connect to it locally using your wireless network.

You would only need internet connectivity if you want to access it away from home. You would need a local area network consisting of a router and the TCP gateway to operate it locally with your computer, tablet, or phone. They also make a handheld remote, I dont have one, so no idea how that works.

Yes. You need to have wifi or to connect it to a router with an ethernet cable.

You only need to connect to the internet for the initial install. After it is installed you can play online or offline.
