Is any other equipment (besides existing WiFi) required to operate this device remotely?

This device doesn't operate with wifi. It has a different wireless communication and requires a Z-Wave processor to make it operate.

I purchased mine to work with my current security system, which I do pay for. Interested in hearing if others are able to use it, remotely, free of fees.

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.

the device needs to be connected to a PC/MAC only the first set up. the device will be on WIFI thereafter.

yes and no, it'll operate without WIFI as a basic thermostat but without internet and a local WIFI network it can't be controlled or monitored remotely.

I don't think you can use it without wifi, since the only wireless connection of this device would be the built-in wifi module. Maybe you can buy a mobile hot-spot from one of the mobile carriers so your ROKU can share its data connection thru wifi

Sorry to be so late to respond. Was out of town. Everything that you need is included as your existing system should be already configured for this device. All I needed to do was plug it in and roam.

You can use Ethernet. You have to do initial set up via Ethernet, just don't enable wireless and you'd be all set.

There was no additional equipment required. I just plugged it into my Cisco IP Phone 7942 and was ready for business.

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.

Im pretty sure you need the Wifi; I havent tried it yet though so your guess is as good as mine

It requires the wifi adapter, it's a $70 add-on. I did a review on it, it's pretty much requires.

There was no such requirement when I reviewed this item. There was an offer to sign up with an external cloud service to record images, but it was optional. Your WiFi is your own business, not theirs, beyond using the camera to connect free via your local connection.

This device is a router/access point with cloud capabilities. You would need to buy/rent a modem in order for this device to function.

Basically yes. There are a few requirements, there has to be a wireless hotspot nearby, if it is protected you must know the password.

No, this unit uses the same kind of wireless network that one uses to access the internet. A web address and web browser are used to set up the device.

Since it works off wifi, I assume you need to be within a specified proximity.

If I have an exisiting Wireless Network, can this device connect to it wirelessly?
