Repeater utilisation and layout

Hi. Can Aqara SMART PLUG (US) be used to extend the Aqara network range? I will have a central hub M3, and will have temperature sensors away from it, potentially up to 250 away. If I add SMARPLUGS every 50ft of so, in a grid pattern, can I consider that the furthest temp sensor will still connect properly?

Hello, yes, theoretically the mesh should work. My recommendations, do not buy 15 meters, you can take less at first, and after checking buy more. Just do not forget, after connecting a new plugin, it is mandatory to reinstall the temperature sensor!!!
You can also use PoE that is in the M3 (cable instead of WiFi) to bring the gateway closer to the temperature sensor.
