Combine multiple hubs into one site

Tormod Tønnesen

A brick house requires 3 hubs to cover 3 floors, changing sites is painful and a lot of setup is required to make them work together. Combining hubs into one site gives lots of options in terms of range, e.g. house + garage too far away.

The playground feature supports controlling a Conbee gateway and that I actually giving it some thought to buy, setting up and configure a Conbee gateway in my home as supplement to the Futurehome smart hub because I’m not able to add a second one is a clear drawback.

It should be a small thing to setup a second gateway in the same home, but it the app as another home, then you can open a port from in the second smart hub and connect it the first hub in a similar way as the Conbee gateway. This should support adding additional gateways in a chain and be similar to already developed functionality, to minimize development in a first step.

This would make FH truly flexible and could then be used in big houses and office buildings with multible floors or apartment buildings because there would be possible to extend the sender and receiver to new places that otherwise would not be reached.

Its ok that the hubs are Individual. Like you setup different zwave and zigbee networks with each hub, but that the app combines everything into one site in the futurehome app. When that is desirable.
