The thermostat should be a passive device and is really just a relay on its own. It could be connected to the switch pins on a Shelly.
I don’t know of a compact zwave dry relay though - so this does mean 2.4ghz wifi.

If it’s like one I rented a few years ago, yes the thermostat just controls a fan, and the radiator is always hot or cold as it’s controlled by the building. I’d be inclined to use a Shelly or other dry relay with a virtual thermostat in home assistant now.
It comes down to what are the developers willing or able to support.
For smaller teams they usually don’t want the responsibility of maintaining the package for distros, and HA developers have chosen to not support that option themselves. In their case I see it - what’s the benefit or incentive to them to maintain packages and the associated support costs or headaches. Containers mean they get a known state and don’t have to try to support unknown environments.
Some interested people can maintain the packages for their chosen distro - for instance I see one for Gentoo but it’s only up to 2024.6. It’s the first that came up in a search but there are likely more too supported by the community.
In my case, I also think that using HAOS on a dedicated box has led to a more stable experience as it’s not competing for resources on my other hosts, and attaching devices to it is much simpler. I think encouraging a solid base for people means a better experience overall when to be honest it’s hard to get started with it to begin with for many people.
The phone or browser may be using DNS over HTTP (aka DoH), check if you can disable it for the wifi network. You may have to disable it on the phone or browser to get your desired behaviour - look up directions for your browser.
This. Basically few addons are ‘fire and forget’, almost all of them need some sort of configuration that’s listed in the Documentation tab, or in the add-ons repo. You’ll need to read up on it and look at the Configuration tab to set whatever you need to allow it to work.
Right now - easy, with the difficulty going up over time as the main Chromium codebase continues to change (and especially as it gets security updates). I think I’ve read that some variants (Brave?) have committed to supporting ManifestV2 for as long as possible, for instance with their own fork.
If it’s logs, there’s a package called log2ram - it’s designed for small form factor systems to reduce writes to SD cards but does apply anywhere you want to log but not hit disk immediately. It syncs logs to disk on a regular basis so you don’t lose much if the system crashes.
From a Linux command line it would be the command called arp, you need to add a static arp entry. I don’t know how that works on sense, but on Linux it would be something like
arp -s IP MAC
Maybe there’s a module in opnsense to help. The way I’ve done this before is using a machine connected to the same network at my target to wake up by logging into that machine and issuing the wake command.
WoL packets are usually sent to the ip broadcast address for the network as they’re not ip based. I don’t know if this would ever work well across networks. Can you do send the wol packet from the opnsense router instead? Does it work then?
If you’re sending it to the IP of the server, it likely works soon after your turn the machine off because the ARP entry hasn’t timed out yet, but once it times out it won’t work anymore. The router doesn’t know how to get to the machine. You may be able to add a static arp mapping to get it to work long term.
All that yes. The Wooting One (original that uses IR light) let you use buttons to simulate controller axes, change how hard you need to press to activate, and add second functions to keys. It was an interesting idea but I found the gaming part the original keyboard to be only usable in a limited set of games as it’s not as sensitive as a controller stick, and as a keyboard it wasn’t great either. Hopefully V1 problems, I know they had through another version of the IR keyboard, and then came out with the Hall effect keyboard. I like the idea but never could get used to it, and when the spacebar was loose I retired it after fixing it.
Yes, the packet passes through routers at each stage and they direct the packet to the ‘closest’ path based on its destination, until the final router has the destination on its network. This can happen a few times (for something in your ISP network), or 10-30+ times for something further away.
apropos
to search man pages, otherwise I use man
Also - how is the adapter plugged in? USB 3 causes interference with Bluetooth so it’s a good idea to put the adapter on an extension and keep it away from the pc and other devices.
In general, if you haven’t taken steps to expose your service to the Internet, it’s not accessible over or to the internet. Your router that connects you to the Internet should have a firewall that blocks all inbound, unsolicited requests, and you also need to do something explicit with most self hosted service to expose them, they will not announce themselves to the world.
In addition if you’re using an ipv4 network address that’s likely a private address (like 10.x.y.z, 172.x.y.z, or 192.168.x.y), which also isn’t accessible outside of your network.
Ohhh I haven’t seen that Zooz relay before, hopefully I can get it in Canada. Going to see about replacing the Shelleys I’ve got deployed then
