Okay, you’re misunderstanding the meaning behind this. What I meant with “if someone doesn’t need Zigbee lamps” is that for example someone controls all their lights with Z-Wave. Or someone just doesn’t want smart lamps. A Wall Plug is plugged into a socket and the socket can still be used as a normal socket. The socket is not made useless in this way in opposite to e.g. with an Ikea Trådfri repeater. The only case where a Zigbee Wall Plug makes no sense is when all sockets in the house are already smart via Z-Wave for example. ---

You are right, I new, but didn’t realize the socket is still available when a smart plug would be in there. ---

Yes, my intention was to add Zigbee repeaters without making major changes to the existing SmartHome system. ---

Hi Ted, after updating to 5.0.4 the B1 curtain motors don’t work anymore as usual. But when removing and re-adding them I’ve get an empty screen. Normally remove and add does the trick but now there is no reset the device screen for adding. ![IMG_20210325_191519](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/6/f6089517ed954f42a7b29044e43c4e7c595a9627.jpeg) Any thoughts on this? ---

Hello, I use V5, i have 21 routers and 33 end devices connected, and everything works fine👍. The only thing is that i can’t see routes in the developper page, only 2 or 3 appears… so i don’t know how many routers are directly conn’ected To Homey . As Said many Times it really important to install routers first to créate a strong mesh, and then adding the EDs. ---

Can you show the zigbee overview? Do you see 2 or 3 routes or routers? ---

@TedTolboom Hi Ted, would it be possible to implement some “ping alive” for Aquara Water Leak sensor , _lumi.sensor\_wleak.aq1_, like in case of _lumi.sensor\_magnet.aq_ ? Eg. even without contact alarm, I see status updated. While in case of Water Leak sensor, I’m not able to see if it’s getting updated or not…recently I just discovered those Leak sensors were not working for 2 months already. ![obrazek](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/2/32a47b3bd0386609078cdcbaa67fee232aa1ed11.png) ---

That’s strange, it should show the used hops on the right. I see 3 coupled routers, and one router offline (seems a lightbulb, is it powerless?), so all your other end-devices besides the ones coupled to Homey, are coupled by either one of the three routers, with other routers as hops in between. I should say, send it to Athom: Ask how it’s possible your zigbee works fine, but not according to the zigbee dash… ---
