Can you recommend a dongle?
- WaitWaitWha 3y agoYes. I have a Nortek HUSBZB-1 model; got at the end of 2021. Never had to do anything to it. About 44USD now. I chose it through reading community posts and such. One specific recommendation I took to heart was to put it on a USB port extending cable, so it is away from the electronics.
- dheera 3y agoI use a SoundOff USB dongle, works great with HA. I recommend against WiFi Zigbee coordinators, they suck.
- vardump 3y agoConbee 2 works great, much better range than what the other dongles have. The software bundled with it is also decent and quick to get started with. It got REST API too for external integration. Of course you're free to use any software with it.
