Smart Control w/o Airstream's Router?

[deborahww]

We are excitedly awaiting our 2021 Atlas. I have been looking at the AS offered router but have decided that I am going to purchase a different router for several reasons.

My question is - if I use my own router instead of the AS router, will I be able to use Smart Control and the remote control features in the Smart Control app when I am not in the RV?

I have been reading that the QR code for the smart control app is on the router box, which I will not be getting.

I hope this is not the case, where I have to choose between the connectivity option that I want and Smart Control!

Thank you!

Not sure where you are with this since it's been a few months but I was planning on doing the same thing with a different modem/router on my AI 19. Were you able to get an answer or figure something out?
