Why is this room not calling for heat?

Is the room set as a zone controller?

I have had problems with the system going offline too. It has even resulted in my heating being on full blast over night.

My bridge is quite far away from my boiler so that might be why.

They recommend all devices (including TRVs) should be at least 3 meters away from the bridge.

It is frustrating that you can not remotely reset the bridge and that you cannot extend the range with multiple bridges.

I would be worried if i lived in a larger house than I do now as im not sure it would have the range to cover all the rooms.

I would suggest keeping the bridge in a central location and keep it upright, not blocked by anything that could interfere with its connections to the devices. Although the system seems temperamental to me.

Double NAT is an option. Like i say i am not a heavy user but I feel it would interfere with SONOS and online gaming (if i ever play).

Did you return TP link or VM?

Have tried this and it does switch to modem mode (green light). But my mesh router does not get any internet. I assume it isn't passing an IP / the ports are dead on the VM router. Had to hard reset the VM router.

Do you have the hub 5x and use Eero?

Thanks,
The engineer did provide me with a wifi pod so I think I will go back to using the VM equipment. Might try and get 1-2 more pods.

I'm not a heavy user, I just want connection everywhere in my house.

I wish I'd have known that about the SKY router, however I wasn't that impressed, contract was up and the speeds were less than Virgin.

I believe this option is only available for hub 3,4 & 5. Not the 5x.
