    I wanted to like this, but it just didn't work. Not like it should have. Brought it back and got the hard wired version, but hopefully in a few years, they'll have this concept down.

    Remote access works for limited amount of time if choosing automatic IP. Also, must configure router for optimal speed. No instructions to do so are included. Customer service is horrible
