@Truckie you can do this by punching a hole through your firewall, but then anyone who hits the IP and port can control your door, so not really recommended. Other option is to set up username and password to login to your web build, but not really convenient. You could use VPN (something like OpenVPN) for quick access to your network, and it is the most secure option. One click and it will be just like you are on your wifi network. I would not recommend setting up your system to do this however, and you do so at your own risk. You are operating the largest/heaviest device in your home without being able to watch it. These doors have the power to cause severe property damage and harm or even death to people/pets/kids etc. Remote operation when not in view of the door is dangerous, and you are putting yourself in a very liable position doing so. Just something to keep in mind.
