I run 100-device zigbee network with zigbee2mqtt. Philips, Bosch, Sonoff and some others. No internet access.
Zigbee devices are slow and low power, they cannot access internet directly.
- misnome 2mo agoNot directly, no; they do it via the hub
- PetitPrince 2mo agoZigbee: You can buy vendor independant bridge / antenna and vendor independant automation server (Home Assistant being the most popular). I guess a bridge vendor could pull the rug on the antenna ("your Sonoff zigbee antenna is now only compatible with Sonoff zigbee product")(to be clear: they've never done that), but the format is open enough that there's ton of alternative suppliers and open source bridge (the aforementioned zigbee2mqtt). In any case, I've got a good amount of both Ikea tradfri and Philips Hur bulb and they have never contacted an Ikea or Philips hardware or software of their life.
