NOOB loves HOOBS! on Home Automation Devices

Available I consider myself a seasoned noob - I have installed dozens of IoT devices but have little networking knowledge and absolutely no programming skills. I've been considering buying this unit for about a year, but I was afraid that this unit would be beyond my ability to install and use.

Works fine as needed.

There is a good chance this will work for your needs. However, it didn't work for me. My main goal for HOOBS was to act as a bridge between my many TP-Link smart devices and the Apple Homekit, but HOOBS has generally failed miserably at that. After many reset attempts, lots of advice on the forums and mostly troubleshooting myself, I was never able to get HOOBS to permanently discover any TP-Link devices on my network (yes, with a "certified" TP-Link plugin ). ).
