As long as your home maintains its internet connection you can turn on/off from anywhere.

If you get the WeMo to work and stay working it should do just fine. But there have been a number of people who have not been able to make it work and some others who can not make it continue to work

I could see the switch online on my phone when I'm in Germany and also could turn the switch on/off via the cell phone network.So I think it should work as you inquired.

Yes, you can definitely control it anytime, anywhere as long as the WeMo devices and your handheld is online.
995563
Yeah this can work once you have access to your router outside your network that this device is connected to and you should be fine

Yes, but be sure to press refresh the button first (the small button on the top left with a circular arrow). This helps ensure that what you see on the display accurately reflects the state of the switches. I failed to do this a few times when I first purchased the Wemo and discovered I was turning the device 'on' instead of 'off' which I intended.Consider making a 'rule' to avoid this (should you forget to refresh the button state); Program your lamp to turn on and off at specified times.

Not by itself. Think of it as a hdtv. You will need either a hardware solution such as a WiFi video streamer like a wicast. I used mine with chromecast and it works fine. Or a software solution like a remote app between your iPad and a computer.

Once you program the switch it should be able to work on its own. No need for constant internet access.

The Bad Elf does work on the iPad 2 wifi only. I have used it in the car and plan to use it flying but have not done so yet. It shows lat, long, track, and speed which is all that I need. I do not plan to use it with maps or anything like that, so don't know how that works.

Actually, yes it can. I recently used this in a hotel that had no wired access, but had a captive login which required me to enter my hotel loyalty program ID. I setup the router to work in WISP mode and it connected to the hotel's SSID. I then attempted to access the Internet from my laptop and was met with the browser window asking me for my credentials and asking me to agree to their TOS. Once I entered all that, all of my connected devices started working (multiple iPads, iPhones, a laptop, and a Chromecast). Every 24 hours all devices stopped working and I had to agree to that page again from just one of the devices.

I am not sure, but I think that you have to just switch the settings on your IPad wifi to other that the WEFEFEYE network. I will be giving this product a more in depth review over the weekend.

It didn t work in China where I spent 10 days. My hotel had the ethernet cable in the room but ..nothing. Fortunately, I could use the wifi area to work with the device. I don t know if it will be the same thing in another country. Gianfranco

Absolutely - if they have a LAN cable, all you need is a power outlet and you're set. It also works worldwide, just me sure you have the right power adapter if needed.

Yes it can and I control it from my ipads as well! Very convenient! Each switch you get to name and it will show up on the app accordingly.

No, the Belkin connects to WiFi. You need a wireless router, which becomes a WiFi hotspot when connected to an Internet port

I use a WEMO , http://www.belkin.com/us/Products/home-automation/c/wemo-home-automation/. , on the outlet it plugs into. I can program on and off times and I can also power it on and off from anywhere using my smart phone.

i don't think so. i bought this with the intention of pairing it with a wemo switch and have th elights turn on and off as needed, but alas, when turned on, the lamps stay off.

It could. It can rebroadcast a wifi signal it gets, this acting like a repeater. The problem is that you have to locate the device where it can get a signal, which might be outside your room. Once it has a good signal, then yes, you can lay in bed and connect to the device which will relay your information to the internet and vice versa.

It should work automatically with your wifi. If your iPad says Wifi + 4g then you need to contact your phone provider to have them establish the 4g service which will allow you to use the device in locations other than those which have wifi access.

Yes you can. It only works with an IPad or IPhone. I do this from hotels while traveling. I enjoy the product but some times you will lose the signal if the WiFi is weak. Normally you can select try again to reconnect or complete a setup to start streaming again -this is done on your IPad.I think you will be happy with the TiVo Stream. I enjoy mine!

Hi Ester. That's the main reason I bought it. Wifi assisted gps on the ipad doesn't work in most places in our country and definately not off shore. This tiny little bad elf is brilliant. One thing you do need to be wary of though ... make sure the gps remains firmly plugged in. I had someone on the helm for a while and she knocked the gps inadvertanly and went for half an hour not noticing that the arrow in the gps wasn't moving.

Yes. It will power their UniFi access points. I use it for that very purpose.
