Bluetooth Proxy #67

Closed JbbDE closed 1 year ago

JbbDE commented 1 year ago

Is there a plan to make this work with the new home assistant bluetooth proxy?

fsaris commented 1 year ago

Currently this isn't possible as the Awox devices do not use proper BLE standards.

Trying to contact awoxi/eglo but not sure if that will be successful

Does this mean, that also a bluetooth repeater cannot help? I was looking at https://esphome.io/, but there is no support and thinking of writing a custom worker for https://github.com/zewelor/bt-mqtt-gateway, but not sure, if the gateway can help.

Due to the Bluetooth issues in latest HomeAssistant versions and the fact that the AwoX BLE mesh doesn't respect the BLE standards I start working on a esphome based component to replace this integration https://github.com/fsaris/EspHome-AwoX-BLE-mesh-hub

Dear Frans, first of all, thanks for your efforts. Also, I have an Olimex ESP32-POE-EA device that I wanted to use as a bluetooth proxy especially for EGLO lamps. However, at the moment I have not been able to establish a connection with your old integration, but I would be happy to help you test the MQTT version. I tried to flash it but couldn't really get past the compilation. How could I help you?

Thanks in advance!
