Does this require a dedicated PC to host the device?

The hub requires an application from Insteon to be installed on a PC or smart device; Ipad. Iphone, or Android. The hub is then setup from the application to control the devces in the home. There is no requirement for the application to be running to host the hub at all times.

The hub controls all the devices installed. The GUI allows you to schedule when devices come on and go off.

NO, it is barebone so it needs a hard drive and memory. It requires an operating system as well whether you want to go open source with Linux or use Windows. I

This device is a router/access point with cloud capabilities. You would need to buy/rent a modem in order for this device to function.

No, it needs to plug into a provided USB cable to connect to a computer (which is easy).

It needs to be configured thru your laptop or PC. It's not too complicated.

No. It uses Broadcom drivers so those drivers can be downloaded from the web and installed.

I would assume so. However, for setup, a pc may be required to run the software.

I currently have the server setup as a RDP server or Terminal Server where 30 call center agents are accessing it with a thin client. I do not think it has required hardware to go with virtual pcs. I think it's lacking the hyper v processor that would be required to do that. I hope this answer helps.

Yes. This is just a stage out of the box use pedometer. There are no connections to the pc for this device.

Nope. Just plug in the USB (the little PC shown next to mouse ) and it does the rest for you! Super simple.

No. It requires a computer with the appropriate software installed to work.

Yes, you need a computer or laptop to use this. Most tablets (Windows, Apple, and Android) have bluetooth built in as well as smart pones.

Yes via wireless or wired but your computer has to see it (connect) to set it up.

No, this plug-in requires software to be loaded to support the device. Also this software is not written by the vendor, so getting any support is unlikely.

To my knowledge, the device always requires a computer to get initial set up. Then, it sits next to the router, and works without questions asked. In my case, over 4 years. Does that answer your question?
