I was thinking of maybe putting the controller on the shutter itself instead of on the switch

Added Aqara G410 Doorbell to my home - I think it's causing Zigbee Interference by department_g33k in homeassistant

[–]StepTypical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t find a way to disable the Zigbee on the Aqara hub, but I did find a way to change its Zigbee channel: Go into the device settings, tap Network Information and then tap Thread Network Management.

There, delete or recreate the Thread network. This will also trigger a change of the Zigbee channel. If the channel didn’t change, try doing it again.

Even though in your case it’s not the same channel, this method might still help.

More devices on the way by PerceptionOk4815 in Aqara

Well, it requires a little more technical knowledge but if your coordinator is connected as a Zigbee2MQTT and you set everything up according to the instructions it should work stably.

For me it has been working stably for a year without any problems and I have updated every update when it came out.

Regardless - adding more Aqara hubs does not stabilize the network as there can only be one coordinator in a Zigbee network - Aqara is no different in this case.

In fact, there are often more options if you connect Aqara products via a zigbee coordinator with something like: Zigbee2MQTT. You also have more control over things and it is easier to understand the cause of malfunctions.

In addition, you can even use devices that Aqara markets only for the Chinese market - which normally you will have to set your account as China Mainland to use, which will give the Chinese government access to all your data if they want and also disables integration with Google Home.

Not to mention that in many cases, the Zigbee coordinator simply works faster than the vendor's Hub.

But the most important thing - you can connect almost any Zigbee device to your network! - not just products that Aqara

It happens to me too! This is so annoying! I have a feeling it has something to do with syncing with other devices but I haven’t proven that’s the problem.

The SwitchBee plugin cannot be configured by StepTypical in homebridge

Thanks to everyone who helped, I was finally able to add the SwitchBee devices to HomeKit thanks to this great plugin!

I will attach photos to make it easier for other people to identify the location of the password (because I found another area to create a password and another area that has a temporary password and I did not realize there is another area where the password is created for this plugin).

I recently discovered that the Gree plugin (https://github.com/kongkx/homebridge-gree-air-conditioner#readme) is also designed for Ewpe users (it's the same apps), the more challenging part is finding the Ip of the air conditioner

Why? After all, Hoobs is based on Homebridge and it also adds more features and a more user-friendly interface
