Answer

Setting Up Internet Features

There are a number of different settings you can use to customize MyHouse Online. First, make sure you select X10 Portal for the Transmission Method (see image below.) Your second step is to set up a remote user name for yourself so you can try out the remote access. Enter the name and e-mail address you want to appear as the "From" information in e-mails from MyHouse Online in the name and address boxes at the top of the window.
