Hue lights are controlled by their bridge via Zigbee, not directly from a client via Bluetooth.
Without an internet connection, they can still be controlled by a client that is on the same LAN as the bridge.
- floatingatoll 8y agoThe bridge only permits authorized LAN clients. Pairing requires using the physical “confirm” button in the center of the bridge itself. Being on the same LAN is not sufficient. EDIT: Oh, yes, you’re right about the “it’s not Bluetooth” nitpick, for whatever good that is to this conversation :)
