we have a property in the mountains, we visit maybe every 2 or 3 months. In the Winter it would be nice to be able to turn the heat on from our home, which is about 3 hours away, so it's warm when we get there.

There isn't an internet connection there b/c we aren't there very much, but I realize we need an internet connection. I just would like to avoid having to pay a monthly fee for something we would use every 2 or 3 months. Is there any other way?

Thx
 
Try FreezeAlarm - you buy the system for $350 and need two thermostats. You set one thermostat at the lower temp, the other at the higher temp. These get wired to the FreezeAlarm box which hooks to the phone line. You dial up, give it your password and tell it to switch between thermostats (allows you to switch to lower if you forget to before you leave). Here's a link:
