I suspect you would have the same issue as I.
If your system is capable of switching between heating and cooling automatically, the Honeywell thermostat will provide you with an Auto function. You set the minimums for each temperature and the system will automatically provide heat or cooling to accommodate your climate control. My system does have that capability...
Connecting to the home WiFi was pretty easy...it'll find your network and you'll need to supply the password, if you have a protected WiFi network. From there, create an account at Honeywell, download the apps for your smartphone or tablet and you're all set.
Hope this helps...

:-) Looks like I'm going to order the Honeywell... Might be back for help when it arrives.
