Remote Wireless Internet Access

[Robert Messenger]

I have a Telular SX7T Premise Access Transport Hub installed at a remote home that has NO cable or telephone land line service. The hub has a SIM card and is connected via an AT&T wireless account. This allows both telephone and internet hard wired services within the home. I have a Honeywell security system and an ISY installed and connected to the wireless internet hub. The alarm system is monitored through AlarmNet via the internet. I can also remote access the security panel via AlarmNet for unloading/downloading, arming/disarming and to view the event log without making any changes to the Telular device or by adding port forwarding. I cannot remotely access the ISY even with port forwarding enabled. How does Honeywell AlarmNet allow me access? Is there a way I can access the remote ISY without paying for a staggering monthly static wireless IP charge? Is there remote service like AlarmNet for ISYs?

Hello Mr. Messenger,

 

In all likelihood, they do have a proxy server out on the Internet and the communications are initiated from the device to the cloud. There are multiple proxy/portal providers for ISY as well (such as MobiLinc Connect) but they do charge monthly fees.

 

What I do not understand is how come you are not allow to do port forwarding on your router? Most Wireless providers do support port forwarding and I just do not know why your ISP does not.

 

With kind regards,

Michel
