Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Unleash Seamless Zigbee Connectivity with ConBee II: The Ultimate Universal USB Gateway by Evan Sharma

Level Up Home Automation

Oh man this thing is great! I ran Home Assistant in a virtual machine on an old Mac Mini. I spent a lot of time researching this device and got tons of recommendations as it is a tool that really helps to integrate many devices from different brands more effectively to increase the level of my home automation. Setting up a virtual machine through VirtualBox was a little tricky, but once I did that and installed ZHA in Home Assistant, I was ready to go. A tip: When initially pairing Zigbee devices, you need to be close enough, after the device is paired and configured in Home Assistant (or another platform), you can place individual devices where I need them. . I chose the Sengled and Aqara Zigbee devices and found no problems.

If its a hardware/software package, shouldnโ€™t the software be accessible?
