I have a Honeywell wi-fi wireless system for a furnace. Would Smart Things hub have a conflict or interfere with this system?

I don't think it will. I have a Z-Wave hub and it doesn't interfere with my Nest wireless thermostat. Actually, I have the two integrated with each other.

Not this device, but there is hope - but not in THIS product, but its successors and its successors competitors - in 2015 (delayed from April to late 2015) the 2nd Gen of the SmartThings Hub is due to come out (around the time non-cloud solutions like Vera also update) with a version that 'should' allow the logic to run 'on the hub' - so that the control capabilities will be up even when the network/cloud/Samsung's servers are down. If they pull that off (to catch up to the Vera in that regard) then that SmartThings Hub 2.0 will be worth considering

Yes, you have to a controlling hub. It might work with other Z-Wave hubs but it's intended to be used with the SmartThings hub

They do interfere with wifi reception, as they run on the same frequency band. This can be reduced by locating the device away from wifi devices.

Yes. I wouldn't worry about interference unless it is very high power or very near fluorescent lighting, or if you are attempting 10 gig connection. Gigabit ethernet will be fine.

I am not sure about the hub thing. I do know, these things are awesome, I plugged them in, they have two remotes, and its range is incredible, better than my Wi-Fi signal. I bought a set for my daughter/husband, they love them too! Highly Recommend!

The Wi-Fi and z-wave modules each plug in to the board, but on opposite sides. I'm using that set up now.

You can control your wemo devices, as well as things like the zigbee based LED lightbulbs selling in the $15 price range... The SmartThings hub bridges multiple communication standards with one app, and a lot of other features. So it just depends on if you have enough with what you have, or if you want more.

My initial thought is no, but I don't know for sure. Sorry. Probably should contact Honeywell Customer Service first.

no it doesnt conflict.you can install. to be sure we need to see dashboard picture and connector type to send you perfect equipment for direct installation

I have a large home and just use the hub. I am very satisfied with the signal. The people at ayrmesh are great with correspondence. If the do not answer they will call you back.

Not directly. Honeywell might be able to provide more real guidance. But, the device creates an audible alarm (think voltage), so it could be hijacked (at the speaker) to trigger a wireless signal device ... something like, well check out a spy device supplier. Perhaps a useful product might be the result...

Yes you should, but it really depends on the construction of your home and how "WiFi unfriendly" it is. If you have standard wooden floors than it shouldn't be a problem, but if you have something like concrete (as an example), this is very bad for WiFi signals.

I don't see any problem, wifi is a type of technology that is universal. Make sure to bring a power converter. Thanks

I wouldn't know as I have only one of them, but I assume that there would be no conflict. The device simply locks onto the nearest wifi signal and amplifies it accordingly. That's its sole purpose, and I don't imagine there would be any issue with transmission or reception of such a signal, since it uses the electrical wiring in your home to connect to the router, but again, I only have one device, so I can't say with any real certainty what the effects are.

Here is the answer taken from another Honeywell WiFi thermostat. It worked for them. The hint was from Nest. Here's what Nest says, "In some rare cases, Nest can experience intermittent Wi-Fi connectivity if the security on your Wi-Fi router is set to a mixed security mode (WPA/WPA2). Refer to your Wi-Fi router documentation to learn how to update your security to WPA2-only mode. Once the security has been updated on your Wi-Fi router, reconnect Nest to your home network."

Yes. They may have a newer version but when you update firmware it should work fine. I have one notion sensor along with 4 wemo switches. It all depends in the quality of your router and the strength of your wifi signal.
