We plan to develop a brand new system which is named“Family Remote Control System”to implement our goal. Since all home electronics will have their own MAC address, we could control all of these stuffs via network by using an appropriate control system. First, we can use PC, laptop, PDA, or cell phone to connect to our home by networks. Second, since all electronic equipments connected to the LAN are controlled by the system, we can control these stuffs what they shall do right away or after a couple of hours. Therefore, we can straightforwardly control television, video recorder, air conditioner, water heater, and anything else even we are not at home. The operations of these electronic equipments include start, pause, stop, making a schedule, and other additional settings for several specific equipments. This kind of system not only saves the time of those people who are usually busy and not at home, but maximizes the applications the network for every household.
