How is this a WIFI controller? I dont see any mention of an app or wifi in the description.

To use this controller via wifi (and ultimately smartphone) you will need the Mi light wifi bridge. There are even some 3rd party plugins to get this controller, along with the bridge, working with the MicasaVerde home automation system for uber coolness.

The item is compatible with WiFi controller. You need the separate WiFi controller unit (ASIN: B00HCLRBZM) that will allow a free iOS / Android app to communicate to these controllers.

There is an app only for MAC and Driod. Not reliabe in remote areas with no wireless

No. This is very simple set up. If you leave it on for too long, the app wifi direct wil disconnect itself. Thanks Heide

Wifi is built in though the apps run very slow. I don't use that feature, I use my own external streaming devices.

Yes. There are two apps for this device one is got wifi only and the other is for non-wifi. I have yet to access the non-wifi app so I don't know how it looks. But I do know the capability is there. Both apps use your IP address to set up and a password to access if desired.

Since mine is broken, it's hard to remember the whole control process. But generally speaking control is via WiFi, so it's as secure as the network.

The Mi light wifi bridge (ASIN: B00HCLRBZM) and smartphone app will work with this controller.

You are correct that the WiFi is built in and it works very well. No additional hardware required.

if you use windows, the included wifi works fine. if you are building a "hacintosh" you need an external adapter.

It adds an extension, I don't recall of the top of my head but something like "YourWIFI_RPT" for normal and "YourWIFI_RPT5G" for the 5g. That is optional to use your wifi SSID "YourWIFI". You can also give it a different name if you want.

You need an existing Z-Wave network and controller to use this device, not WiFi. An example of Z-Wave controllers: MiCasa Verde, 2Gig, Aeon, SmartThings.

A Wifi module is attached and it is optional for you to attach it or not. I did attach it to the board and it is workable.

No this is a firewall and VPN device. You would need to add an access point for WIFI.

The included remote connects to the controller wirelessly. But there is no connection to you home wifi network. It's just a proprietary wireless connection between the remote and controller.

This does not have wifi (wireless) capability. This works by outputting a open or closed contact based on the resistance between two input pins. You could I assume create a wireless temperature sensor using a temperature probe and a controller with a wireless interface - say a Arduino or Raspberry PI for example. However, you would also have to (I assume) provide a wireless relay control circuit - by the time you have done all that you are better off just using a controller (Arduino or Raspberry PI). If the point is that the temperature being sensed is in an adverse environment (remote?) that also complicates issues. So, the short answer is I don't think so, wrong device for the job.

I got the app from the itunes store. I think it is alled ES Remote or something like that and it's free. I have a dedicated I-Pad Mini Retina that I use to control my entire system and it is like having a Control 4 controler pad that would cost over $1000 and does most of what I need.
