So, I am relatively new in Arduino world, so yes, I'm a n00b
Ok, I know the basics of arduino. But now, here is the thing. I have Arduino UNO and Ethernet shield connected to router. With my phone (iOS) I want to turn off the LED on selected pin (let's say to turn off the LED on digital pin 13).
How can I achieve this?
And just for fun, let's assume that phone and ethernet shield are not on the same network.
I was thinking in this way: My app on phone will send "turn off pin 13" request on my website, and then this website will need to send this request on my router for ethernet shield and then...arduino will process this and so on.
Is this the correct way? Did anyone already did this? If yes, is there tutorial on this project?
