Recently, I made the switch from my old Netgear router to the Norton Core, and I must say, it’s been a game-changer. The improved speed and signal strength have been a breath of fresh air, especially with so many IoT devices in my home. However, I encountered a hiccup with my SmartThings hub, which started going offline more frequently. After some troubleshooting, I realized that resetting the Norton Core via the app resolved the issue, which was a relief. This experience taught me the importance of regularly checking and updating firmware to ensure smooth operations.
When it comes to automation, I’ve found that simplicity often yields the best results. For instance, setting up routines for lights and thermostats based on my schedule has made my life much easier. I also discovered that integrating different devices can sometimes require a bit of trial and error, but the payoff is well worth it.
If you’re looking to enhance your smart home setup, I recommend exploring the Event Engine for creating complex automations without the hassle of coding. It’s a powerful tool that can really take your home automation to the next level.
