z-wave over tcp/ip

[labium]

has anyone experience with a z-wave usb stick attached to a kind of usb to ip converter and controlled over the internet, like rfxcom with all kind of commands ?

I played for about half an hour with a cheap ip - usb server and an Aeon Z-stick.

The PC gets a virtual COM port. It worked fine.

But it is one of the many projects, that I will continue "in a little while".

got aeon labs zwave stick, plc, irtrans, rfxcom, and a few usb to rs-232 converters running on 2 belkins ( usb 2 network ) thru the house here.
No problems to report from my configuration and its runnig quite stable for a few years now. ( hs2 )

on the local lan network is also heve no problems to adress usb over ip/tcp but on the wlan(internet) is a different question.

z wave and plugwise over the internet works fine with the program usb over ethernet on a remote computer with the z-wave aenon labs stick in it and the plugwise stick. it doesnt work with anywhereusb, lantronix ubox and belkin homebase. these last 3 devices work fine on a local network but not over the internet.

but still a simple usb to tcp/ip box would be preferrable because of the costs and energy consumption. still looking for the right solution for usb over internet.
