Or…he could just add a Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 dongle, Hue outlet or two, or those inexpensive plugs you have recommended in the past. I complained on here before about the Sonoff S31 lite being terrible repeaters but they have been reliable as far as staying connected and working. I have 12 other strong Zigbee outlets and in-wall switches as well as 3 Sonoff dongles on the same hub though.
Another thing that I noticed a long time ago was that until you do a firmware update, or shutdown the hub and reboot, the child devices don’t seem to change much after adding devices. When I bought my second HE hub and added all of my Lightify 4-button switches to it before any repeaters, they remained child devices of the hub until the next firmware update.
