Can I turn ON and/or OFF my hotspot remotely?
Thanks barcodeable, for your suggestions…I like # 2, except that we have lots of red squirrels up there that I'm sure with a little bait we can get them to push a button that turns everything on. The monkeys couldn't survive the cold in northwestern Michigan. ( we also have Bear, Coyotes, Wild Turkeys, & Deer) hum…lol
Your #1 suggestion, is brilliant! I think I'll try that next time I get to the Cabin. However, I'm not sure how this will work since my HotSpot is always on until the battery runs out of juice, and the charger must kick on. I can't remove the battery without breaking the case open. (it's sealed in)
I checked out You Tube, for people that used an old cell phone to activate a switch, I could see some potential here,also; but I figured that since these HotSpots have their own phone numbers, they could be programmed to turn on when you call that number,and/or enter a passcode.( like retrieving messages remotely on an answering machine at home).
I also have a switch in the top on my hotspot, I could probably break the case open and solder some wires to the switch, and hook them to a cell phone activated switch. But the software solution seems to be the simplest, if the manufacture would ever consider adding that feature to the hotspot.
Lets see what other people think, before I dig in to my Hotspot.
Gracias
