FPL and Android App simultaneously on same account

Post by samster »

Hi I have FPL home service running a Linksys 2102. Running CipSimple app on Android device (tested and working).
I am planning a trip for October and would like to use my home number on my Andoird smartphone over 3G.

My question is, what happens if i run my Android app with the same login info as my home ATA? Any conflicts?
If only one phone can ring, how do i ensure the smartphone rings all the time?
Will my house sitter still be able to use the phone (just in case)?

Any suggestions or experience?

Thanks!

Sign up with FONGO android application and have your FPL setup with your new FONGO app as a follow me number. Make sure you have the follow me number set up as Simultaneous. This way your Fongo app and FPL will ring at the same time. Who ever picks up answer the phone. This way your babysitter will be able to reach you and use FPL.

CipSimple app will interfere with you FPL home phone if is setup as same number as the FPL.
