Since you anyway have an RPi running on the 3th floor, could you install a 2nd Homeassistant instance there? And just connect the Elero Stick there? I think this would be the easiest approach, not needing Software Development.
You then could create some MQTT sensors which consume a MQTT message (sent from the first HA instance or any other MQTT client) and trigger the Elero actions.
I have it working that way on my system. (MQTT->Elero)
Hi,
I've had the same problem half year ago. My homeassistant is running as a virtual machine on my server and the Elero Stick cannot reach my covers.
I've adapted the Elero integration to use ser2net https://github.com/matrixx567/home-assistant-elero/tree/ser2net_refactor
I have connected my Elero stick to a raspberry pi in the middle of my house. On the raspberry pi I've installed and configured ser2net to redirect the Elero stick over TCP.
On my home assistant instance I've installed my patched version of the Elero component. I've run this setup without any problems for half an year now.
At the end of the Readme I've written some information about the configuration of ser2net and homeassistant.
Currently I've not enough time to complete the documentation, rebase to the latest commits and create a pull request.
That is a good feeback. a stupid other question:
It seems the USB Transmitter is not produced anymore and it is not that cheap. Any experience with the Elero Center, which is not really more expensive anymore?
yes, the Transmitter stick seems not to be available anymore.
The Elero Center is 2.5 times as expensive. But it seems to be cheaper as some years ago. I see it now for 250.-, some years ago, as I remember, it was 400.-

I think the newest solution is Yubii Home? https://www.yubiihome.com
It seems there is another gateway that supports Elero.
Hi, its not an issue, its a question:
My Home Assistant installation is running in the basement, but my elero shutters are in the third floor.
I have an RPi running in the third floor.
Would there be an option to either remotley connect from home assistant to a stick which is on a different system or setup a eleror2mqtt bridge?
Best Regards, Johannes
