I have to ask. What do you want it to do while connected? Most that have that ability only update their own software.

I want to be able to start and stop it with my phone. For instance if the power goes out my pellet stove doesn't restart itself when the power comes back on. So I do want to be able to check and make sure the power is on nd stove running since I'm only at my house on weekends. So I'd want to start it up on Friday before I get there.
 
Any 3 knob Harman control board stove can be attached to a WIFI thermostat,simply.And,it will relight itself,as long as the switch is in the auto position.There are quite a few threads on here about using WIFI t/stats.Some WIFI t/stats also alert you of a power outage.The big thing,as I assume you turn the heat down low,would be if the WIFI stat would go low enough to keep stove from running,when you are not there,like 35-40 degrees?That would be a simple fix,other than you have to leave your internet and WIFI on all the time,when not there.Although,I bet WIFI stats have an OFF setting,which basically never let the stove light,until it was turned on,and temp turned up.I do not know if there are other stoves that will relight themselves,after power outage,without pushing an extra button.Might want to use the search box above,with WIFI and read some of those threads.
