Your SmartMesh IP network is an essential piece of a low power, reliable, IoT solution. Once you’ve gotten to the point where you have proven all the great attributes of your SmartMesh IP network, you may want to integrate your project into a complete end-to-end IoT solution. A great deal of that end to end solution exists outside of your SmartMesh IP network and outside the parts you can buy from Linear Technology. There are infinitely many choices you can make there, and the vast array of choices might make it hard to figure out where to start.
In this blog postrecipe, I’ll show you two different ways I’ve used to access my SmartMesh IP network over the Internet, from anywhere. These quick and easy methods to provide around-the-world connectivity to your SmartMesh IP network are not intended to be free turnkey solutions to what your product might look like. They are intended to be examples you can use to execute a demonstration, access a pilot network remotely, or do a proof-of-concept for your project.

I imagine there may be LAN setups that are not compatible, and this blog post has recipe has no guidance on how to troubleshoot that.
