I would like to disconnect Vera from the internet and found that when i connect to Vera from my PC, it takes a long time before the GUI comes up. It says "Loading data in progress"... When I allow my Vera to get out to the internet, the gui comes up fast. I'm assuming that the Vera is trying to go somewhere on the internet and it finally times out and lets me into the GUI. Is there something I can do to fix this issue?
Also I use iVera, and iVera seems to need to get my inside ip address in order to work. Is there a way to statically set my Vera address on the MCV servers? Right now i have to allow my Vera box outbound access every week for 15min.
The reason I'm concerned with this is that Vera and the MCV servers may be designed with security in mind, but if hackers can break into the US military, they can break into a service like this. If folks have locks, cameras, lights, alerts tied into the system...... it's just scary.
