It’s rightfully overlooked now because HomeKit Secure Routers are basically dead.
I actually have a router that supports it, but I don’t dare turn it on because I have no confidence on it continuing to exist and the migration path back off it looks like a pain.
- macintux 1y agoThat's a shame. News article covering the apparent abandonment: https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/03/22/apple-has-abandoned-homekit-secure-routers-claim-vendors https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/03/22/apple-has-abandon...
- reaperducer 1y agoI wonder if things have changed since that article was published a year-and-half ago, because my eero, with the firmware from a few days ago, still supports it.
- Marsymars 1y agoI assume it’s in some kind of maintenance support mode. Actually removing support from routers would be a nightmare for anyone who’s set up their home by pairing devices through a HomeKit router - all their HomeKit devices would become unpaired.
