I have a WiFi local area network without Internet access. Will I still be able to control this via an iPad or Android device?

The short answer is NO. It needs to talk with Honeywell's Momma Server (which is what your iPad and Andriod also talk with) to act as the go between. Honeywell's Momma Server is somewhere out yonder on the internet.

For earlier versions of this thermostat the answer is definitely NO, as the thermostat is actually controlled from Honeywell's Momma Server, which is only accessible from the Internet. Your computer or IPhone actually communicates with the Honeywell server, which then communicates to the thermostat, all via the internet. A possible exception to this answer is with the very latest versions of this thermostat, which include an IPhone application. Whether that new application allows the IPhone to communicate directly with the thermostat without an Internet connection, I don't know, but I doubt it changes the control situation.

I think "no". I would have to look at its manual, and think about it for a while, not right now, but I think all of its connectivity is to the Honeywell mothership web site. W/o internet access to that, no remote control.

no. there are plenty of apps (at least for IOS) that does not rely on wifi/cell access

No, wifi only when you are connected to the same wifi network. You can also connect through your Android / Iphone while away from your house / wifi network

Yes. Once it's on your LAN, it can be accessed via a browser from any device on the same subnet (e.g. 192.168.100.x addresses).

The drone hosts a WiFi network your device can connect to. You won't have internet access while your controlling it.

You can use most apps without Internet. But, yes, wifi is the only Internet connection. No cellular.

No, but you can use your Android/iOS device to control it over Wi-Fi. It's not the best interface I've seen, but it works. You can also transfer the videos/images over the wireless connection. All that comes in the box is the camera, a battery, a 12-inch Mini-USB (note: not micro, like your cell phone probably is,) and a helmet mount of some kind. Luckily, the camera uses a standard camera mount, so it works with my other equipment.

I you just want a local area network though WiFi and your smartphone has WiFi capability, as well as your other devices, then - Yes. But you don't plug it into anything. The BrainyTrade device creates it's own hot spot for your devices to connect to.

Hi,Yes any internet service will have a WiFi router for your location, and the iPad will connect directly to your WiFi. But you will have to check with your Cellular carrier to verify 3G connectivity.

I use it via safari on my iphone. Just type the IP address assigned. Is browser based. Not sure about Android.

No,It cant's be controlled with an iPad or iPnone.I didn't find this function.

Yes, will work without an internet connection. Either use the APE to create a wireless network, or join the APE to your existing wireless network

You would only need internet connectivity if you want to access it away from home. You would need a local area network consisting of a router and the TCP gateway to operate it locally with your computer, tablet, or phone. They also make a handheld remote, I dont have one, so no idea how that works.

Yeah, Wifi is internet, and you can play it without an Internet connection. But you won't be able to download updates, and play online.

Not to the iPad that I know of but you can pick up a Verizon hotspot or tether the iPad to your smart phone and go that route at a later date if you pick up the wifi only version.

Yes, you can use the device without an Internet connection. We had to use it that way for over a week. The 2 things that it effects are the channel guide, and updates to the system. You can load updates to a USB drive from your computer, and then transfer it to the device.

You don't have to have wifi to work it. It is easier to adjust through the interface, but you don't have to adjust that way.
