Web Interface


-Now you can control the switch simply by clickin ON or OFF from your favorite browser (i use my cell phone to activate the switch thru the web interface). Since my linux kung-fu skills are not developed yet, it took me some time to get familiar with .sh scripts.


USES

-Hook it up to your car's door switch and open your car with your wifi enabled cellphone.

-If you have Remote Start System installed on your car you can hook up the remote control of the system to your f.i.c.s. (fonera internet controlled switch) and turn ON/OFF your car from the internet

-Open your house/garage door.

-Turn ON/OFF your POOL PUMP.

-Restart additional routers with f.i.c.s.






check out f.i.c.s. Fonera Internet Controlled Switch

 

Watch the f.i.s.c in action VIDEO

since im not very good in programming shell scripts can someone write a Shell script where the user will be able to schedule the f.i.c.s. to go ON/OFF at certain times thru the web interface.
