I have Home Assistant installed on a computer that are running Debian 11.
I am looking on to use it to more than just Home Assistant. And it only have a 100 mbit/s LAN.
So i want to upgrade it to 1gbit/s LAN. The computer have USB 3.0 ports.
I have 2 options. Use a USB 3 ethernet adapter or use a Mini PCIe to Gigabit ethernet (RTL8111H) card.
The computer have a WI-FI/Bluetooth card in the Mini PCIe port.
But i have not found any use for Bluetooth or WI-FI in Home Assistant.
I have the HUE Bridge with Home Assistant.
I have some TP-Link smart plugs that using WI-FI. Then i using HUE Lights and 2 IKEA trådfri GU10 lights. But nothing that uses Bluetooth. The Smart plugs are connected to my WI-FI access point.
The case have low profile bracket slots.
