Title: Wifi management with Alexa
Post by: bart on December 31, 2016, 09:32:38 pm
Hi, I wish the Alexa support for Almond+ would allow me to manage my wifi with it. Specifically I wish I could tell it to reboot the router which is something I often get up and go to my Almond+ screen to do.

I use my phone for that so no one can accidentally do it but I also have a rule that when x device is turned off reboot my Almond so I can do it that way if needed.

I am not sure, if this helps, but once you enable the Almond skill, you could directly talk to Alexa for blocking the Kids Wifi.

If they allowed reboots via alexa,, id require a voice pin code before id allow the reboot....
Similar to alexa's purchases requiring a voice pin...

(if thats allowed through the API)
