Local conection to Zipabox from Zipatile app

Why the option of connecting locally is not given on the Zipatile Zipato App? Right now I'm using my zipatile to access my Zipabox which have all my home devices connected to it, I'm having a network problem (internet provider) and I cannot access locally to my zipabox from zipatile (there is no "down arrow") so I can select local connection. Looks like the only use that I was able to give my zipatile right now is no longer fulfilled.

This is the option which currently missing, as Zipato app on Zipatile is automatically connecting locally to it's own Zipatile controller:-(

Since now we can have many different configurations with Zipatile, Zipamini, Zipabox at our homes, and specially with the cluster option now available, dont you think it would be nice to be able to access locally to one our processors at home? if we don't have internet we have to go pick our cellphones in order to control devices while we have a perfectly capable device just attached to the wall... In my opinion and for many others in this forum this option should be a must, please consider updating the app to allow local connection to other controllers from the zipatile.

Has there been any progress on this? I'm currently using my Zipatile to control my Zipabox as well. If my two boxes were in a cluster - would the Zipatile be able to control the cluster while being offline?

Cluster is primary communicating through local network, and if there is no local connection between controllers, than communication is through Internet. However, when controller looses the connection, it can take up to 1 minute to establish normal way of function. This could be a period in which some delays could happen.
