I have a Smartvent Evolve ventilation and heat transfer system (I don't like it, what's the opposite of reccomend?).

One of my major beefs is that the "Wifi network controller" is actually on its own network designed to be used with their supplied tablet, meaning if I want to access it on my pc or ipad I need to log out of my home network and into the Evolve network. It also means there's no way to forward the port and access it on an external network, so I can check it while I'm out, for example.

How do I change it so that it is on my own network and not theirs?

The setup consists of the main brain box which has an ethernet out to a wireless router which is how the Evolve network is created. I have tried hardwiring that brain directly to my router and it appears that it becomes a device on my network but when I try and use that ip address to access it nothing happens.

I have also tried coming out of the evolve router to my router but that doesn't work either, all that does is gives the Evolve network access to the internet.
