Whoooo! Ive just arranged for the internet to be installed at my mothers house - well, should go live in 10 days but nearly there!
We've gone for a router from her phone provider which they are going to send to me - luckily we had to register the LPA last year to make a couple of necessary changes so they were happy to speak to me! In fact, they could not be any more helpful and were very understanding.
We reckon we can install the router in the hall, next to a phone line and elec socket but then hide it under the telephone table so she won't know its there and mess about with it!
Then we can install security cameras and a doorbell camera so we can hopefully deter the evil men who knock on her door to ask for money! The police told us that with a photo they might be able to help and I can't wait to speak to them through the microphone!
Then we are going to install Hive so we can switch the heating on again when she switches it off or owners the thermostat! We're going to disconnect the existing thermostat but leave it in place so she can fiddle with it to her hearts content!
Are they any other apps we can install to help support mum from afar? What else do you do?
