Well, that’s not what he says, is it? He says that the range is equal or even better out of the box. So if others can have that range out of the box, why not Athom. ---

I’m reacting to @Jan_Peeters, not to @danone: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/2X/c/c659bcf280bb8d4e8d9ccc936c3b5a9aeaf2e3bb.png) There’s an annoying bug in the forum software that doesn’t always show the comment to which is being referred. ---

Is that’s an amplifier I sure hope your neighbors don’t live close by! And if they do: let’s hope they don’t use zwave/zigbee 🤣 ---

So you are building a Death Star. Nice. Also like how your Homey looks like it’s in The Matrix with all these connectors popping out on all sides. Okay. Enough movie references for the day… ---

Oh, but that’s easy @Undertaker just look when it passes above you (about every 91 minutes I think) and flash a torch. Now serious, have you tried the LNA amplifier on z-wave with Homey?? ---

Thanks, look forward to hear from you! I had nothing to spend money on, so I’ve ordered one amplifier from Amazon. As well as a high gain antenna, this has to stay away from Homey as it weights alone almost 1kg 😁 Just want to test it. As far as I know, there are no neighbors using z-wave… ---
