I have a current installation with HomeAssistant running on an Unraid server and the Conbee II stick connected to a Raspberry Pi running the Deconz software. Since the Raspberry pi is in the living room (close to most of the devices) and the Unraid server upstairs in the study, having the Zigbee gateway running on the Raspberry, and the HomeAssistant on the server works great.
This works perfectly for the Deconz setup, but the setup guides for the Sonoff stick suggest that I discover the stick directly in Homeassistant, from an USB port on the same computer.
Will I be able to run a Raspberry Pi zigbee gateway seperate from the Unraid server? Any referral to HOWTO’s and guides would be much appreciated!
Good to hear that it’s possible. I was already considering to move to Zigbee2MQTT, so that’s not an issue. It should also make it possible to use the Conbee and Sonff sticks side by side while migrating devices, am I right?
Any reference to installing on Raspberry and connecting to HomeAssistant? The guides I find all run from the same computer the USB stick is on.
