Hi all,

I’ve read that the Z-Wave chip in Homey theoretically should support Long Range, but I can’t find clear confirmation that Homey Pro actually supports it today, or any real-world experiences.

- Anyone running Z-Wave Long Range on Homey Pro (2023) in NL/EU?

- During inclusion, can you choose LR, or does Homey force the classic mesh?

- Anyone got the Shelly Wave Pro 3 working in LR?

- Range and stability vs classic mesh?

AFAIK the “status” is still nothing more than “the z-wave 700-series chip supports z-wave LR”.

Second, when I look at the H.A. [z-wave LR antenna](https://www.home-assistant.io/connect/zwa-2/), I’m not sure if it would perform well with Homey’s tiny internal antenna? Homey Pro 2023 lacks an external device connector

Yes.
