Ah, good to know someone with a similar setup! I have some Homepod minis, so siri does get some usage. Did you by chance also migrated from Homebridge to HA? I would have some questions about how to migrate zigbee devices from homebridge to HA… 😅
I guess I’ll give it a try at least, that would solve my problem somehow.
I am aware of the service, but I don’t want yet another subscription if I can avoid it. I am happy to donate to the HA team, but I’m slowly but surely moving away from subs. I will eventually get rid of HomeKit and in general the whole Apple ecosystem if I can sufficiently satisfy my needs with self-hosted services.
Hey, thanks for the hint! I’ll need to read more about FHEM since it’s the first time I hear about it (how do people even find out about it?), there’s a lot going on for me here, but it’s nice to see there are more options out there.
Hey, thanks! I’m glad to hear this. I do have both of the devices you mentioned that function as home hubs.
I would like to add other questions, if I may: Do you have a similar setup, or do you know if there is any noticeable delay to update the status of the devices in the Home app? This isn’t a dealbreaker, but would like to be aware of the repercussions of such topology.
Update: It works! I get all notifications from my sensors and it’s working great. Thanks everyone!
For future reference, my setup:
HASS OS running on an SSD (Kingston A2000 250GB) connected to a RaspberryPi 4B 4GB
And an addendum: If anyone is having trouble migrating their Zigbee devices from Homebridge to Home Assistant, what helped me was unplugging all previous zigbee router devices before setting up the new Zigbee network, otherwise the coordinator wouldn’t start or some weird issue would pop up during setup. After disconnecting the router devices I was able to start the coordinator, and add the routers again to the new network.
