This brings up a good discussion topic on what outgoing information from an outernet device should support.
Telemetry on the device status (already implemented ? )
Rsync file synchronization to ensure it is up to date.
SMS or similar outgoing messages.
A network bridge between the wifi browser function and a second network connection (sim card or ethernet)
An id number or address assigned to each outernet device.
Enhanced Security
Remote Admin features like changing tuner settings or disabling a failed device.
Who would support/filter requests for changes in the download content.
I’ve run into a few of these “problems” with internet of things (IOT) devices and I am waiting for the future when home devices like webcams, thermostats, fire alarms have it all figured out.
