I know I know I know. Aqara isn’t the best because of how they do their own thing and don’t follow the standards. That being said, I have a handful of devices and I’m wondering what you guys think the best driver is to use for them. There are so many different drivers. Just looking for the one peopl…

Thanks. I have all Innr/Iris Smart Plug repeaters. They work great otherwise and I have like 13 of them so it's hard to justify trying to get rid of them. These are my only repeaters on my Zigbee network.

In my case, my Zigbee network happens to be much more reliable than my Z-Wave one. I also have a bunch of Aqara and Xiaomi devices, and I do not have issues with them. For switches and buttons I’m using -Zigbee - Xiaomi/Aqara/Opple Button/Switch/Remote-. For Aqara motion sensors -Xiaomi Aqara Mot…

I've got motion, contact, lux, temp sensors, buttons and their square. I love their design. They all work fine. Very rare drop offs. I use IKEA repeaters which help a lot. Drivers are mostly Markus'.

Did you look in HPM? That's where I got them. Not sure if they are still in there given the difficulties these last few months. I think there are also some new drivers prepared by someone else. Search the forum, I'm sure you'll find them :wink:

I am using Aqara/Xiaomi door, vibration, light, temperature sensors as well as one of their buttons. I am using the drivers by Markus except for the light sensor where I am using drivers are @chirpy [image] [RELEASE] Xiaomi Aqara Mijia Sensors and Switches Driver Custom Drivers …

I have 4 different types and I use these drivers as well. Tired them all over 5 years and tehse seem to be the most mature. Just get rid of non-compliant repeaters, that's the key. I removed all my ZB repeating devices and installed 2 Tradfri. Almost no dropoffs now.

On a side note, where is the best place to buy Tradfri repeaters if I wanna experiment? Thanks!

I bought mine (online) from Ikea. They are cheap and seem to work. They were also the goto repeater on ST for Xiaomi compatibility. EDIT: I have the power plug ones not the USB model.

They work great. Nice form factor and provide a USB power outlet, but they are highly underpowered (my only complaint). Pity, being a repeater.
