AlanC Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Hi all, planning to purchase a smart door lock with matter, heard it requires router with thread support. just wondering if Arakins 510 supports it, or i need to get a thread border router instead. thx.

Cyknight Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 There is no 510 router so obviously no it doesn't support thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 AFAIK though, your router doesn't need Thread support by the way - you need a Thread border router in your system to use Thread communication. This to my understanding is another one of those wonderful ways the industry gets flooded with poorly named devices and protocols. A thread border router is included in numerous devices in is in effect a SOFTWARE HUB In other words if you have an AppleTV 4K you have a thread HUB (as is should be named, or perhaps BRIDGE) in your network Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
