Review: This works quite well. We wrote a small application in the AutoIt language so we can compile to a portable EXE. Our app directly "bit bashes" the IR commands over TCP just like the iLean utility does when you press the "Send IR" button. (get this off the Global Cache website) I used Wireshark to see what it sends over the network to replicate this behavior, it's pretty simple. We recorded the commands using the ILearn utility pointing our remote to the reset button hole, and basically copy paste the recorded string, with a linefeed & carriage return at the end. All you have to do then is smash the string over TCP to the iTach. Our method is not working well over high latency links, but probably due to not having adjusted any TCP settings in our app. If you are on a LAN, this method works a treat. We have not tested any cloud services, as we wanted our solution to be 100% independent and internal. If you have zero programming experience, notepad and iLean are really all you *need* to make this do something over a network.
Review: I think this is a case of you get what you pay for ... it was expensive, but works. Unlike a lot of IR devices it works every time. It's great to have it on the network with PoE. Small enough it can dangle from the network cable if you don't want to mount it I took a star because their signal database isn't as comprehensive as I had thought and the helper apps are windows only and do not have a modern design. The setup and tool documentation is a big hard to figure out on your own. But they are so widely used there's plenty of help on the internet for them.

*by T***R on 2 May 2013*

this unit is very fluid! no pointing the remote halfway between devices and holding it there until code finishes relaying. i press the button, or macro, and stuff happens! I have not found where i can control the unit from away from the house without opening holes in my firewall. i'm using IRule, it was a pain to learn, but lots of tutorials and FAQ shows that remote to be very functional. i'm not currently using the PoE because i'm using a usb power adapter it comes with which was a pleasant surprise. you know you have an open usb port where this device is going to live. the learn function included wasn't overly difficult, i only had to learn 1 remote for my kdlinks, irule had my hr34, onkyo and vizio already.
