I am a complete newbie to the HA world, but I know enough to be dangerous. Looking for a little guidance from those who have been there. All advice would be most welcome.
Here is what I am looking for:
I have 2 homes – both with high speed Internet. I would like to control the environment of the second home from the primary home via the Internet. Things I am thinking of initially would be: lighting throughout the home - including outside, thermostat control and possible a camera or two. I know I need good software, an interface module and units to control each device. Beyond that, I need help.
Software: HomeSeer, Home Domination, Power Home , etc……etc.
Device control: x10, Insteon……..
Interface: ……….
Thanks in advance for the tips………..
