It wasn't long ago that we would install dialup modem links to do remote control. You have a choice here to dive in and relearn the old tech or find folk that do this.

I have a remote house with no internet, but it has a land line. Is there an option for a land phone that has wireless, so as to control wireless devices like thermostats which are wireless?
