Hey. I’ve seen several people asking about setups like what I’d like, but no clear solutions.
I have hassio on a Centos VM in my basement server. I’d like to use my rpi3 + HUSBZB-1 to relay zwave and ZigBee to that basement hassio VM.
This way I get the performance and stability of the VM, with the centralized gateway location for the wireless mesh networks.
Any thoughts?
Im just getting started on wireless devices and haven’t bought the HUSBZB-1 yet, so I’m open to other options. I already have a Schlage door lock and I’d like to use the cheaper ZigBee sensors throughout my house, that’s why I’m trying to setup both protocols.
I had a look at zigbee2mqtt and a veraplus. The Vera devices don’t support a lot of ZigBee devices. I’m still open to zigbee2mqtt but would want to host a zwave gateway on the same host. The HUSBZB-1 just seemed easier in this case, just not sure how to link it back to hassio.
