Internet Thermostats ?

[bamx2]

I am looking for a WIFI thermostat suitable for vacation rental homes that has a simple display and very easy for the weekly renters to adjust . Here are some that I found - http://www.cocoontech.com/foru...tach&type=post&id=2277 , www.ecobee.com , www.lightstat.com / , www.resconsys.com TW-43 . Proliphix ( www.proliphix.com ) has Ethernet wired units (no WIFI) and has been around for a good while , Anyone here have feedback on these ?

Thanks

I think Ecobee is your best choice if "simple" is necessary, although it does have a monthly fee for access.

If you can afford to rent vacation homes....

Something wired with a local IP would probably be safer. imagine someone cracking into the wifi and turning the heat WAY up. lol.

I think that the Ecobee has WPA2 security .
