No audio no sound
You're unlikely to get much help with your DIY product here. Most professional installers will have never played with one. If you are having issues and it's not fit for purpose I suggest you take it back to Maplin's with your receipt

does anyone want to see my alarm collection
Nothing really interesting or hard to come by there IMO. You can still buy all the Texecom gear you have BNIB.

has anybody came across any of these alarms
Omnicon and the Video entry I have played with in the past, both probably still in service.

Freesense - You can be identified passively by WiFi
Just seen an interesting white paper on studies that have shown you can be identified by your interaction with WiFi signals. http://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.03430v1.pdf If you don't care for reading a white paper the overview is this maybe useful for smart homes of the future and has potential for domestic intruder detection. Will need a fair bit of work before it could be used but the concept could see the end of the movement sensors and domestic security as we know it.

Texecom Comwifi
It is advisable to use a static IP that is outside of the pool over DHCP. This sounds like a server side issue that happens on occasion. Linked into your own DDNS service or Static IP with Update IP off is best solution IMO. There is setup required on the panel and with the web interface. If you follow the manual word for word and you understand the terms you shouldn't go wrong. I would switch off the COMWiFi local network while in the interface configuring it. If you do get the ARP issues you mention above and are not sure on clearing them, you can simply reboot everything wait for connection to come back up and then continue.

Qualcomm powered Android Vulnerability affects 900 Million Devices
FYI A number of vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Qualcomm chipsets used in many Android handsets from many of the leading manufacturers. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an unauthorised user to take full control of an Android device but in order to do so an authorised user would first need to install a malicious app. https://www.cert.gov.uk/resources/advisories/advisory-quadrooter-vulnerability-affecting-android/ http://www.cnet.com/news/quadrooter-security-flaws-said-to-affect-over-900-million-android-devices/ http://blog.checkpoint.com/2016/08/07/quadrooter/

Yes, static IP or Dynamic IP you will still need port forwarding unless your using peer-to-peer. Portforward.com is a good start.

Scantronic 9800+
I'd rather have a 20 year old scantronic than some modern 1 way wireless tat. All about the risk? Seems like a simple swap like for like, it's the same reason obsolete keypads sell well on ebay. Very easy to swap something like for like, although I have known "engineers" to get this wrong.

I imagine you need to setup port forwarding or the like on your router to view remotely?

Subby day rates
Do NSI actually bother to check if companies use approved subbies? It would appear not from my experience.

It would appear the battery has gone faulty and used your issue. It's possible that the unit is faulty, would be best to have it inspected to make sure the panel has kept it's programming and the panel isn't damaged. A new battery maybe all it needs but without proper testing you will not know if it's likely to do it again.
