Does Mira Connect need access to the internet to control my devices after it has been set up?

After the system has been set up, Mira Connect does not need to have access to Mira Portal. However, access to Mira Portal makes it possible to manage Mira Connect remotely by users with the proper permissions, automatically receive information alerts about the room should any equipment have an issue, receive software updates, change equipment, unpair from the room, and edit equipment and control points.
