Hello, I have a Homey Pro set up in my company, and it works perfectly. I have run a Wi-Fi cable to our basement, which is 200 meters away, through a thick layer of concrete. Several Unifi Access Points have been installed. I have set up a Homey Bridge, which I can see in my system. My question is whether I should be able to receive Zigbee through my bridge?
The Bridge only acts as a router in the Homey Pro network. In other words, the Bridge needs to be able to contact the Pro over Zigbee, it doesn’t act as a Zigbee-over-WiFi device.
Okay, that makes sense, thank you for the response. I misunderstood the system.
Apart from that: whats a Wifi cable? eifi is wireless.
Even if you mean UTP : 200 meters is above the specs of UTP…
Thd idea is nice though. Would two 2023 Pro’s with ethernet and with 1 configured as sattelite work ? Or is sattelite only for 2023+2019 ?
I apologize for the technical errors and statements. I have a 2023 Pro with ethernet and a 2023 Bridge. Are you saying that if I buy one more Pro, I can set them up together?
No prob.
No no, I’m not saying you can, I was just wondering if that could work.
It might, if the mesh ap for a 2023 pro with a 2019 also works with 2 2023 Pro’s…
I don’t think there is a wired way to pass zigbee through a concrete wall …
A few years ago this was the response of Athom about the idea for bridging 2 zigbee / z-wave networks
But, there should be an upcoming app called Homey Link (indeed, to link multiple Homeys), which might open up possibilities (was mentioned in a podcast probably).
I have no clue about the actual functionality though.
