Hi<span> </span><br>
<br>
Sorry, not sure this email is related to email list.<br>
<br>
I am looking for a remote controlled power switch via telephone line to control the router if the router is out of sync or need to turn ON and OFF. It is for some of my client sites which are far away that need some control over especially weekends.<br>
I will be much appreciated if you let me know the place or web site or recommendation of the particular brand.<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
<br>
