I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are proposing. Most (possibly all)
the home automation systems I'm aware of have IP control interfaces either by
default or as an option, usually through a browser. The FR should be able to
control those already via WiFi, and would probably be very good at it.
Or are you proposing adding a dongle to connect directly to one of the
wireless home automation protocols like ZigBee or LonWorks?
