Hello!
I’m moving in a new place soon and I have about 50 aqara lightbulbs to install and configure / add to a hub. It takes a while to do all one by one so I was hoping that maybe one of the pro hubs could help me mass Commission my lamps and enable Zigbee overall. Is there such a thing?
If not, what’s the smartest way to do this?
Thank you!
Hello.
If you take the gateway and lamps that were tied to this gateway, then the laziest way is to give the router that will be in the new place the same seed and password that was in the old apartment on the router.
You just turn on the gateway, which will automatically see the router (it doesn’t matter from which manufacturer the router is) and will work like in the old apartment, controlling the lamps and automations.
Brand new place, Brand new everything. It’s all in boxes right now, waiting to be unpacked, installed and paired.
All lamps, switches, sensors and hubs are new. That’s my issue. I will take the time it takes to set it all up but I was hoping for some advices on how to do it faster.
Ideally, I would love to have a pro hub with a usb Barcode scanner, scan each box before opening, assign them a room and then just actually plugging stuff in the right place.
Now, THAT would make me happy.
