Will Home Assistant act as a Gateway for non-matter devices. e.g. Assume some lights which Home Assistant can control, can be a matter hub (export an interface) so other Matter Apps can see it on the network and control the lights?
In the Blog some one has recommended the “tp-link UB500“ Bluetooth dongle to use.
But it’s unsupported in the integration. See in the link.
During the release party of HA2022.8 they mentioned briefly that they discovered issues with the TP Link Bluetooth sticks. They seem to lose connection and reconnect very often. Maybe this is the reason why they are currently not supported.
