Find out or set the Zigbee channel #87

Open gruijter opened 2 years ago

gruijter commented 2 years ago

I am trying to get a better radio coverage in my house. I have multiple WiFi stations, Philips Hue, Another Zigbee network, and the Plugwise2Py network.

For all other networks I know and can even set the used channels. But what channel is Plugwise using? Is it possible to find it somehow? Can it be forced on a certain channel?

Thx for your help @SevenW !

@gruijter, have you been able to find the channel for Plugwise devices?

gruijter commented 2 years ago

Unfortunately not. :(

To bad, I have Hue, Plugwise and a WiFi network. I have moved 2.4Ghz Wifi to 1 and 6 to free Zigbee channels 22-24. I have set this in Hue app which works great but Plugwise cant be set, from what I know it chooses a channel on setup and sticks with it.

I'm considering to sell all my Plugwise stuf and go 100% for Hue.

@gruijter I have a Wi-spy spectrum annalyzer with chanalyzer pro laying aroung somewere. Maybe i can detect what channel is used.

I'm still busy to setup plugwise-2-py using docker on my Synology NAS though. Once everything works I can do a spectrum analysis.
