FAQ Section

Will this work with my existing Home Assistant setup?
Yes, absolutely. It's designed to work with any Home Assistant installation, whether on a Raspberry Pi, a NAS, or an old computer. Just plug it in.

What's the difference between Z-Wave and ZigBee?
Z-Wave uses a different radio frequency. This means less interference from Wi-Fi networks and often better range through walls in your home.

Can I move this stick to a different server later?
Yes, you can. Just plug it into the new system. You may need to repair your Z-Wave devices, as they are paired with the specific stick's radio.
