Imagine being table to secure your home from the inside out with an in home based security system controlled by the Internet, also known as an in home automation security system. These state-of-the-art security systems are one of the hottest trends in technology, and the best part is that you’ll be the one in control of your home security. However, it doesn’t just end there. You can control your heating, cooling and lighting in your home as well. Therefore, you’ll save time and money on your heating and cooling bills in addition to your energy bill.

What Makes an Internet Based Home Security System Different than other Alarm Systems

The main concept behind home automation and security systems is that they can be controlled via the Internet. They give subscribers the “hands on experience” that other popular mobile devices like tablets and mobile phones provide.

Benefits of Internet Based Home Security Systems

The best part about internet based home security systems is that you can control them from anywhere. Therefore, if you’re getting ready to board your plane and you suddenly remember that you left the lights on the kitchen, you can turn them off using your cell phone. Or maybe you forgot to activate the alarm system after you shut the door and you’re already halfway to your destination; there are no worries because all you need is a computer and internet connection. You can also use your mobile phone or tablet device to activate your home security system if they have Internetservice.net.

These networks are pretty basic and therefore, have low data rates, are budget friendly, use very little power and are extremely reliable. When you have an internet based security system, you can also choose which devices you want to be able to control. So, if you only want a network designed to control your home security system, this is also a possibility.

Another benefit of an internet based security system is the ease of use. Let’s say your on a long business trip away from home and you’re are afraid that your home will be susceptible to a break in. Another great feature you can use is to turn the lights on during the evening, so it looks as if someone is home. This will give you the peace of mind you need to feel comfortable about leaving your home unattended.

Pitfalls to Internet Based Home Security Systems

However, to ensure you have all of these luxuries, you’ll need to tie the network that controls these devices together. Wireless or Wi-Fi based networks distribute data, voice or VoIP, and video or audio to various areas of your home.

Nonetheless, they can be overkill if you only want to be able to control the lights or temperature in your home. That’s because most homes have two or more networks, one accesses and distributes broadband content, and the other manages all the systems or devices in the home.
