Add Sonoff wifi devices to iHost and control them locally

Показать описание

After reviewing all the Zigbee features, it is time to link my "old" wifi devices that are in my eWeLink account. It is a very easy and straight forward process. As with NSPanel Pro, not everything is working now, not all the devices are supported and not all the features that are available in eWelink app is working in the iHost. But I am sure it will be improved in the future.

There are some Tuya Zigbee device in the market. Will it work with ihost? I have purchase one ihost unit, so far it works with sonoff but want to know if it works with Tuya devices . I have tried one Heimann Zigbee Fire alarm and it works fine

Thanks for the video, super helpful, but I am having an issue. I followed the steps you showed, synced my devices in the iHost, created a scene, yet when killing the internet connection they are not running. Am I understanding something wrong?

Good morning,
Thanks for the video, but I have a question, and it is the integration into Sonof's IHOST. As I see it, the only way to add it is through a plugin called Paral-Sync.
As I understand it with this plugin, what is achieved is to manage the elements associated with the screen that exist, but the screen is transparent to ihost, I cannot see it. I would like to clarify that before buying it, since what I would like is that all the configuration that can be done on the screen through ewelink could be done through ihost, but I get the feeling that the device is not zigbee, If it does not work through a socket, but it always needs the Internet to work. Please let me know if this is the case, thank you.

Hi very helpful video, but I need assistance with the settings for the memory and %CPU of the Add-on - the User Guide skips over it. I have the RV1126 DDR4/4G and may add HA and Homebridge. Can you advise?

Thanks for the video, Seems strange I have identical son-off(MINIR2) smart switches, where some are synced and some are not supported yet. I wonder if its how they are connected to the network in some way.

Does the Ihost support ALL the sonoff devices. Does it include the power metering devices from sonoff ?
Will I have still be able to controll devices and change scenes via ewelink when using Ihost ?

I ordered two iHosts. The first two days have been very disillusioning. I am not able to install docker containers in 1.5.3. Bevahior is generally strange. Reboot doesn't work. Also pairing Zigbee 3 devices has not been successful yet. If I had only one iHost I would believe in a faulty device. But with two devices...? But how come it works with your devices? Did you install that with 1.5.3 oder before?

Thank you for this video. The problem I have is only the originally powered wifi devices show up in both the Home and Docker screens, any devices that were powered on after the original devices were detected are not detected at all. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the ewelink/ewelin-smart-home add on and also clicked the redetect button numerous times, but still only the original devices show up. Any ideas how I can get my other devices to show up on the iHost?

I have an Nspanel and some other Sonoff sensors, can i use them Locally if i install the Ihost?
I understand that first to Sync, and add them i need Internet access, but after i done that, can i just run them on the Local Wifi with no internet, from the Ihost? Thank you

How about adding Tuya Wifi devices? Don't have any Zigbee devices. I do have several Sonoff wifi devices and a lot of Tuya WIFI enabled devices (switches, light-bulbs etc.). Can these be added also? Do I need a docker component? or can't they be added at all? Haven't really found any info on Tuya wifi integration on the web or seen it done on any video.
