I found the Ion Micra offered by a UK supplier, which seems like the path of least resistance (or RF....). I very much appreciate all the responses.   Now on to a water depth sensor for my rainwater harvesting tank.......

Thank you, these have been most helpful and informative responses and very much appreciated. If I can't make it work now, I don't deserve to own the equipment!

Thanks, that wasn't on the UK Amazon site, or else my searching skill are off today!   I currently only have the HAI Wireless Receiver installed and along with a Crestron InfinetEX gateway and a couple of others I am reluctant to install another gateway unless I absolutely have to. Definitely an...

Hi,   I would like to install a open/close sensor on my garden gate, about 60m from the house. Range-wise it is just about possible to use a 46A00-1 but it is virtually impossible to seal it well enough to prevent water and/or insects from finding their way inside. I have also tried installing...

Is there any update on this? Mine hasn't worked for months and the last I can see is "we are working on it"....

Well that "intensive play" I spoke about took a little longer than I had hoped, but if anyone is still out there, I still have the intermittant problem. It worked for a week last week, all of a sudden this morning I can't access the Omni IIe. As ever I can access other devices on the network...

I will have an intensive play this weekend and report back, you have given me plenty of food for thought. Very many thanks for your help. Marc

That's pretty much it. So going back to your original post, would you recommend and changes to make things easier/simpler? As I said, I could simply take the BT router out of the equation, run the DSL connection and the firewall on the dd-wrt device and use an external switch to give me the...

Not quite, it's all one subnet and there are also devices, both wired (Omni IIe, Apple TV, Crestron controller) and wireless (my and my wife's laptops, printer) connected to the wireless network on the BT router. The second wireless network is as I said, just for wifi remotes. For convenience...

Interesting. I appreciate this is getting a tad off topic, but can you give me a little more of a steer on how to set this up? Right now I have my DSL connection coming into the house connecting to the BT router. I connect that router to my dd-wrt router via CAT5 simply using it to create a...

I meant to add, as part of the dumbing down BT don't allow users to update the firmware, it's done automatically. More I think about it, the more I realise I should change it out!

Guys thanks for all the responses. I will go through everything again at the weekend. On the subject of using a different router, I was just checking on that. I am using the all-mighty BT over here in the UK and they supply what they think is the mutts nuts of a router. It actually isn't bad...

I would agree with you, but I have been over and over this and am even starting to suspect my router is doing something odd. I forgot to mention that it is also intermittant, in that it may work for a day or two then stop working. When I get to the house I reboot the Omni IIe and the router and...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction, I have been banging my head against the wall for weeks now. Not sure if this is a networking problem or a HAI problem but am tending towards the latter. I am having terrible trouble accessing my Omni IIe remotely (via Snaplink...

Hello! I have an Omnistat connected to my Omni IIe. Connected to Zones 9-13 are five relays (not PESMs) connected to 4 storage heaters and my underfloor heating. Right now the relays are not connected to any outputs on the controller, but I would ideally like to be able to switch the relays on...
