Hi guys, new to Hubitat but learning lots from community.
I have Sonoff S26 outlets and want to check if it works as Zigbee mesh/repeater.
Where can i check in Hubitat?
Where do i find the yourhubip
In a web browser, enter http://[Your Hub's IP Address]/hub/zigbee/getChildAndRouteInfo and it should generate something like this:

No. S26 is a WiFi device, so it does not speak Zigbee protocol.
This S26 definately Zigbee as thats how i paired it on Hubitat.
S26R2ZB then. Sorry for being pedantic, but model number is important in this case. A quick search of the forum shows that a few other folks are using it also.
If this device is the "Smart plug" in your route info, then it appears to be available to be used as a repeater. i don't have this one specifically, but my S31 Lite ZB and S40ZB Lite are adequate repeaters.
Sorry, ill be more specific next time.
Thanks for the info.
Not your fault, at all. Sonoff tends to have several models with similar names, which often confuses on-line suppliers.
Is the plug very far from the Hubitat hub? LQI:205 is what I see if my plugs are perhaps 2 rooms away. Every application is different, though.
By the way - Welcome to the forum!
Thanks for the Welcome.
Both plugs are 2 rooms away from Hub.
Hub is very close to Wifi router, would this weaken signal from Hub?
Yes, the hub and the router share one and the same frequency band, so try to move the HE hub away from the WiFi router.
Will do that, Thank you all for help

also maybe set your zigbee channel to 20
I find this chart helpful when looking at wifi & zigbee... channel 20 is your friend!
