I’ve been diving into the world of Zigbee devices lately, and I must say, it’s been quite an adventure!
I started with a few Xiaomi sensors and an Ikea Tradfri setup, but I quickly realized that the range wasn’t as robust as I hoped. ![]()
After some research and trial and error, I discovered that using Xiaomi sensors alongside Ikea Tradfri bulbs as repeaters made a huge difference!
The Tradfri bulbs not only provided stable lighting but also acted as excellent signal boosters, ensuring my Xiaomi sensors stayed connected even in harder-to-reach areas of my home. ![]()
I also experimented with adding more Zigbee routers, which really helped stabilize the network.
It’s amazing how a little tweaking can turn a flaky setup into a reliable one! ![]()
If anyone else is struggling with Zigbee range issues, I’d love to hear your tips or experiences!
Have you found any other devices that work well as repeaters?
