So, I have a ZWA-2 running in LR mode. 16 devices. I have one sensor that’s thru some walls, so signal is dicey. Can I put an electric plug in the same room, and let that act as a repeater for this one sensor? If not, do I have to look at making a mesh network (As I read somewhere on here a ZWA-2 can have LR and mesh functions at the same time?
Thanks.
LR mode is one to one, not mesh at all from what I understand.
I think the controller can do both, but the satellites are in one mode or the other.
Your always better off using mesh mode unless there is a need to use LR like going out to a shed
That’s actually the case, I have a couple of sensors in a shed near the house. That’s why I defaulted to LR. They communicate fine, but I did not test them in mesh.
I was wondering that if I could/did run both, LR and mesh, I would mesh the two I mentioned, the window sensor and plug in same room, as mesh, and the rest can stay LR as most of the other sensors are through some walls as well, and they would just work.
