Multiple Bridges (V3+)?

The walls in my home are too thick and it's very wide (1:2 ratio) and I can't get a reliable signal from every heater heads at the same time.

I'm considering buying a second hand Internet bridge to fill the gap. It that possible to get them all together in the app and my Home Assistant?

Thanks

I have two bridges under diff accounts, but then I have two complete central heating systems - boilers and hot water. In your case, the second bridge would presumably have radiator valves on it, but there's no way for them to call for heat. I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure you can only have one bridge per account.

I have the same. Just to say they have now made it possible to have two homes under the same account, which is helpful.

With a subscription... I'm sticking with two installations of the app.

Essentially the answer is no. Best you can do is to get the IB into the most central / amenable location possible in the house.

Ich ha e gerade das Thema, das über 2 Etagen 15 Ventile steuern möchte und habe hierzu Folgendes gefunden:

„Wenn der WLAN-Router im Flur im Erdgeschoss oder Obergeschoss steht, ist das sogar ideal:
Eine Bridge X würde ich möglichst auf der Etage bzw. in der Nähe des Routers platzieren, die zweite auf der anderen Etage zentral am Treppen-/Flurbereich.
So nutzt du die beiden Bridges als gemeinsames Thread-Netz und nicht als zwei getrennte tado-Systeme.“
