[Question] Router mandatory ?

[octera]

Hello, Do we still need a dedicated router (like a philips hue light) with this firmware ? In others terms : can we run with only one sonoff dongle and multiple powertags?

Thanks

Yes this works without router. Using any router between the dongle and the PowerTags will very likely NOT work.

If I understand well the router will cause issues in the time window for the dedicated ack needed by the powertag to keep him happy, right ?

Yes exactly. A router in-between will likely not relay the packet in time.
