I have a couple of questions and have been researching alot and have been getting confused. A definitive answer would help alot.
I have three 4.2 heatermeters. Mine, my son's, and one I bought from Auber. I have a Raspberry Pi model b. I just uploaded the latest firmware.. I have 2 SD cards set up. one for my home network (client), and one for Access Point (ap). It connects well to my home network, or I can use the access point and connect directly to the HM.
Now, I have a Linksys Velop Mesh home network. Before, (? 5 years), I had a normal router that I used DDNS to access it from home.
1. To access away from home is it still prefered to use a DDNS? I had a free one but now it is not free.
2. New software on SD card. On power up, does it automaticaly upload it? Do I need to select, reset Config on the HM menu?
3. I change the default password(PW) on Linkmeter. Does it save it to the SD Card? The software in the HM for the next power up?
4. I make changes to the openwrit software. Is it saved to the SD card for the next reset config? Or is it just to the HM firmware which is good for the next power up but not on SD card for a reset config?
5. Is there a thread that describes the latest and best way to access away from home? I have a Linksys Velop Mesh. Best DNS service?
Thanks! Alot of questions, any hint would be great.
The new version of the firmware is great with the drop down menus is great and prevents a lot of problems and show the correct wat.
Thanks,
Joe
