• Yes, during initial setup you will need to set up the hub to connect to your WiFi network. The remote will use RF to communicate with the hub, but the Harmony apps will connect to the Hub!

• I don't believe wifi is required, but some form of internet access is required. You can connect with the Harmony Hub via the cloud using cellular data or your home internet connection, including wifi.

• YES, the remote communicates with the HUB via WiFi then the HUB transmits the appropriate command via either IR or Bluetooth for each device. As in IR for the DVD and Bluetooth for a PS3 and PS4.

• It is not essential but it is helpful, more flexible if you have the wifi. You can connect directly with cables for programing and such instead of wifi

• No. It will control through radio frequency as well. Wi-fi is a second method for controlling components.
