I don't like cloud services, you never know how long they'll last.
Is there something like pushingbox that i can run on my own Linux server?

you can use google cloud messaging (https://developer.android.com/google/gcm/index.html) if you have android phone.

- Sat Jan 24, 2015 3:09 pm #8101 I tried this but can not get working:

Code: Select allprint("Pushing...")
conn=net.createConnection(net.TCP, 0)
conn:on("receive", function(conn, payload) print(payload) end)
conn:connect(80,'213.186.33.19')
print(".. and .....")
conn:send("GET /pushingbox?devid=v*****************&A=1 HTTP/1.1")
conn:send("\r\n")
conn:send("Host: api.pushingbox.com\r\n")
conn:send("User-Agent: esp")
conn:send("\r\n")
conn:send("\r\n")
conn:on("disconnection", function(conn)
     print("Got disconnection...")
     end)
     

With Firefox-browser it works fine. Any suggestions what I could try next?
