Can they be seen from outside your router? Many people have unsecured wifi, so even if it's relegated to the local net (which I doubt) it can still be hacked. <br><br>Will whatever you are cooking boil over if it's been on high all day? What if someone turns it on high with nothing in it in the middle of the night? Or someone could simply shut it off right after you leave the house. They would have to impress me with their security before I'd think about getting one.<br><br>Paul<br><div><span><br></span></div><div><br></div> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica,
