Hi all,

I have a razberry ha setup, everything Is ok.
Now i want to buy more sensors for one room that Is real far away from my Raz controller. This room Is in the same ethernet lan of my Raz controller .

My questIon is: Do i need another raspberry with razberry card on it Even in this room? Is there a cheaper secondary controller that I can buy to handle the sensors in that room?

Regards,

Simone

buy some repeaters or plug socked as repeaters to make this work.
I think this is the most efficient way.

What is the distance - and how many walls are between controller and this new sensors?
(what type of walls)

Or - would be good to have a simple sketch with equipment / distances and walls to give more precise answer ;)

thank you for the reply and sorry for the late answer guys,

Real far away I mean i'm on the 2nd floor and I need to go underground in the garage!
So wireless way is not the right way i think...I have LAN connection through power line adapters, that's it...
