I have bought a Xiaomi Gateway hub v2 (but it has China connector).
Right now it seems that I can only connect to Mainland China server then only can set up my Gateway.
.
Any one here managed to switch it over to Malaysia server and still able to connect the Gateway to the network or not?

FYI, ur hub is china version, mean u cant switch over to malaysia server. only can connect to china mainland.

China server very lagging. Sometimes didn't sync to it so automation not functioning.

You can't do that unless you buy another gateway with global version one, but then it's not for China server.

MY vs China I go for China since MY server support very less devices only..

Yes, China server no doubt has more devices, but it's f***ing lag!

For me I don't feel that lag actually, quite ok, what kind of automation is not functioning due to not sync? Mind to tell?

Alarm automation and Air Purifier 2S.

mine automation switch off all lights.
occasionally won't work. no idea why.

Have it successfully link to the apps? How about the gateway hub?
Mine air purifier sometimes got delay but overall it's ok.

all successful linked to the app.

i guess some time the hub hang and need reboot.
after reboot, i need to press on those unconnected sensor.
and off and on back all the automation, or else it won't run.

If it's communicate through ZigBee it shouldn't be affected even the apps lag/delay, which hub are you using?

one mihub

and one aqara hub

the automation which assigned to mi hub seem like giving this problem.

do i need to frequently restart those hubs?

lagging is unacceptable if it misses some automation which is critical.

Ofc usually it doesn't need frequent restart, something wrong there, would get a v3 hub tonight, after have a try update you

thanks.

its a zigbee hub
works even without internet

anyone had experience with aqara hub???
i used to off my wifi before sleep, but aqara hub will start blinking blue searching for wifi.
I had been clicking on the button on the hub to switch the light off.
is there a way to set it off and won't blink anymore??
Thank you

Never ever switch off your wifi...you already paid for the subscription, let it run 24/7

ya, another topic guy also advise no need to switch off.
guess i will on 24/7 onward.

it's so funny that my son woke me up every night cause he saw the blue blinking outside the room.. haha

Sold off all my xiaomi automation devices and switch to sonoff now.

Just got mine xiaomi hub v3, only connected one wall switch as child devices so far for testing purpose, work as expected and no need reconnect the devices even power off and on back the hub.

wall switch is fine cause it is using power.
for those sensor, most of the time it can't auto detect.
just press on the button to reconnect it faster.

You mean those like window and motion sensors? Let me try later, will update again.

yes, those motion sensor and windows sensor which run on battery.

Regarding your question about the hub indication light, it's able to turn it off at setting through the app.

I have tried off wifi for few hours and on back, doesn't seems like need to reset any of the devices.

ya, off wifi won't affect the connection.

i mean that if i off my gateway, it takes time to reconnect all the child device. Especially those which run on battery, i found it hard to find it themselves. So i press the button on those device once (not long) just let the gateway detect it easily. you will hear the voice "normal connection" after this. it's not a reset.

Hmm I did try off the gateway for few mins and on back, still able to detect the sensor normally. Not sure if power off for long time but guess it should be always on once you start to use it unless there's blackout.
