Hubs, bridges & Matter/Thread networking
The hub, Thread border routers and network design that make everything else reliable. This is the part that usually gets skipped.
- Matter
- Thread
- Apple Home
- Wi-Fi
- Ethernet
What we install
- A local hub that runs your automations, with an Apple Home hub alongside it
- Thread border routers placed for coverage, not convenience
- Bridges for equipment that does not speak Matter
- A dedicated network segment for devices, with the rules written down
- Wired backhaul to access points where walls are open
How it stays local
This layer is what makes local-first true. The hub runs on your network, on hardware you own, with an automatic backup of its configuration.
Good to know
Every device's network address, Thread network name and credentials go in the handover pack. Admin access stays with you.
