QUOTE(poringkien @ Dec 4 2020, 12:02 PM) i see! but there are alot different seller selling different gateway. unsure how compatible is it to other zigbee devices. @.@  All Tuya Zigbee gateways are universal no matter whom you buy from. My 50 units wired gateway should arrived by this week. I also have Tuya Alexa speakers with Zigbee gateway & IR but have some limitations because not by Amazon.

I have different batches from different suppliers all not up to my requirements. Already found one that can do 100% Alexa/Google integration but too busy to nego. His price rather high. I also found a universal Zigbee sensors that can support Tuya, Sonoff & Generic Zigbee meaning Smartthings, hubitat, ikea & philips support but price of cos very much higher. Tough decisions.

What do you think about WPM ? they have zigbee gateway, some sensors and switches as well. after installed my mi gateway v3 i finally realize so many confusing problem. My mi bulb cannot detect by the gateway but can all detect by yeelight app. Door sensor cannot detect. My light strip is 1S cannot detect by app when i use singapore gateway. I use china gateway some stuff also cannot detect and its slow with delay. After press takes 3 to 10 seconds to trigger. So anyone know what the best server that can use the cross breed sensors? or list what we can buy or is there any manual way we can install?

Only zigbee devices are connected to the gateway, like your door sensor Bulbs, light strips are using wifi and connect to your router

I switch back to Singapore no issue. Cannot stand the delay to China server  Here is my setup   See the light strip is not in the mi home.

Because I believe the new door sensor only supported under China server so far If not mistaken it should be communicated through Bluetooth between the gateway and sensor, then gateway helps showing open/close records on apps even you're not around home

But i am unsure about Smart Home Kit. I tried didnt work. I switch to China server I can see the door/ window sensors. If switch to Singapore it disappear. My question how do I know which will work with Singapore server. I notice I keep buying conflict with China and global server This post has been edited by Theoutspokenguy: Dec 14 2020, 03:31 PM
