Hey everyone, I was looking for hardware to add to my HA Green to incorporate matter compatibility. I am currently using a ZBT-1 for zigbee, and another z-wave zooz dongle. What is a good way to integrate Thread/matter? Would simply buying another ZBT-1 and configuring thread onto that one work? I heard trying to run thread and zigbee on the one ZBT-1 could cause problems.
Any device options of ideas are very much welcome. Loving my setup so far. Thanks everyone!
I have the exact same setup, an HA Green, 2 ZBT-1s and a Zooz. My research found that trying to run Zigbee and Thread on the same dongle was not supported and would likely have issues. Using 2 ZBT-1s does work. Although I am having Thread issues at the moment, I’m not sure it’s because of the ZBT-1.
I started out running the experimental dual-stack firmware on a ZBT-1, and suffered regular outages - typically on the Thread side, but occasionally on the Zigbee side. I recently bought a second ZBT-1, and loaded the dedicated thread firmware on it and reverted the original back to Zigbee only. Both are running rock stable at the moment on my HA Blue along with a Bluetooth dongle (no Z-Wave at the moment).
