  1.  @nickwallette6201  the idea of using a phone to interface with smart appliances is a good one, better to adapt to the person's needs (brighter screen, bigger text, text-to-speech), adapting the keyboard and the idea of a database for cooking isn't that appalling to me if you search on your phone. What I hate is the idea of "turning on your microwave from a hundred miles away". No, I don't want that, and I don't want anyone doing that to my microwave!. Use BLE(bluetooth) as the communication protocol, have the phone download the recipes and send it to the microwave before starting, hell, keep a cache of favorite recipes with you wish, but don't open it to the internet. I know wifi has a bigger bandwidth, but do we REALLY need that?

  2.  @christopherstaples6758  why don't you change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0? you'll have 65534 IPs without needing more than a single subnet
