RVAltCtrl Portal

Once your RVAltCtrl device has connected to your Wi-Fi network and has Internet access, the RVAltCtrl Portal at my.RVAltCtrl.com becomes the primary place to access and manage your RVAltCtrl device. The portal can be accessed from any web browser on your phone, tablet, or desktop/laptop computer.

Enter your Device ID to open your device. You can also save the Device ID in your browser so the portal can remember your device for future visits. The Device ID is saved locally in that browser.

Portal Overview

From the portal, you can:

  • See whether your RVAltCtrl device is currently online or offline
  • Connect to your device locally when you are on the same network
  • Connect remotely when Remote Access is enabled
  • Check for and install available firmware updates
  • View and purchase available features and add-ons

Because the portal is always available online, my.RVAltCtrl.com is the recommended starting point whenever you want to access your RVAltCtrl device. You'll want to bookmark it, or add it to your phone or tablet's Home Screen as described below, so it's always within easy reach.
