obitalk.com vs remote control

I still have surprises from time to time and have to double check both interfaces to make sure the changes have been enabled.
If the device(s) are not local to you, how are double-checking the OBi interface(s) to make sure the changes made it there?
Juste:
I have remote control to one of my distant devices and only OBiTALK access to the second one. Both have the same configuration. I can double check the behaviour of the first one and compare what really changes/gets overwritten.
When I see that the device does not react to the changes, I realize that some settings did not get overwritten.
RonR:
I couldn't live with that uncertainty.
I prefer to change the OBi web interface port to 8080, forward port 8080 to the OBi, and access it directly so I know exactly what is happening.
Juste:
I have to deal with that.
People in those places would be bothered if I tried to ask for their help. Fortunately, I do not have to change settings every day. Once I set up the configuration I want, it works properly and can be forgotten.

RonR -
and I use vi to edit files. I am not saying it's the same thing (comparing vi to editing device directly); only that you have started using OBi device long before the rest of us; when ObiNet panel wasn't even available... so you got used to it.
I manage 4 devices remotely, with 3 not available directly - and I've never seen setting not pushed to the device (it does take up to a minute to push and reboot the device; it's a minor inconvenience)
