As i just started experienting with thread (IKEA…) i just figured it would be nice if i could utilize esphome for this as well.

Just as a short feedback, a spare ESP32-c6 from SEEED was all i needed. :star_struck:

With info from following sources and no AI i got my first DIY device for thread:

It acts as router (extending network) and can report sensor data, so far.

My device dropped out of the network.
Reading the logs via ESPhome webflasher USB connection gave an error message: “SRP client reported an error: Duplicated”
Following Github issue indicates that renaming the ESPhome device after joining is causing issues.
A rebuild as a new device reestablished the connection for now.
