Summary
Setting up the Connectix Smart meter wifi gateway is very easy. Connect to the Wifi, configure and you are done.
I had already a MQTT broker for my Home assistant and Zigbee network, so I filled in the MQTT details. After that I configured my already running DSMR reader (and changed the usb p1 cable to > the same MQTT details) After that DSMR reader and Home Assistant were good and I had one USB cable less in my system. In my Domoticz instance I filled in the IP of the Smart meter, and the same meter give also my Domoticz the details 🙂
Very Nice.
Pros
- Great support
- Can be powered by p1 if you are using version 5.
- Great connectivity options (Telnet/MQTT/API/HOMEY/BLYNK etc)
Cons
- Dutch instructions (but with pictures and google translate very usable).
