AVM is far ahead when it comes to networking. This "intelligent socket" ventured the AVM step towards home automation. What is far from RWE under the name Smart Home or Home Server Gira as basic and complete package for permanent installation on the market, can be with this outlet very easy and very flexible implement the main features. Caveat: The device works (so far) only with the AVM Fritz! Box 7390 and the current firmware from 5:50!. Instructions to update the firmware and set the socket can be found in great detail on the manufacturer's website. The connection to the router receives the outlet via DECT and is therefore loosely through walls and ceilings. It can be set up various inputs and Ausschaltpläne. I personally prefer the ability to control the outlet via Google calendar entries. Also, the remote access via smartphone works with the MyFRITZ! App for device on the router smoothly and great fun! So if in the morning right after getting up will have ready a ready permeated coffee or on and off, or high blinds and wants to go down the road of light, is well served by this outlet! A lot of fun and therefore gets an A strong buy recommendation!
