Woo! #Matter plugs have arrived.
Plan is to connect them to a domestic appliance to see if I can use the power monitoring to detect when they have stopped.
I can understand a small, cheap, lower power, minimal bandwidth device being restricted to 2.4GHz WiFi.
But I wonder if this really does *only* support #IPv6?
My router supports it - although my ISP doesn't. Fun experiments ahead!
@Edent Assume you've done some Googling by now but this is correct: https://developers.home.google.com/matter/primer/thread-and-ipv6
@bensmithuk
Interesting! These are WiFi only (+BLE) - no Thread as far as I can tell.
Will set them up later and see.
@Edent Aye, but there's content on that page about Matter / IPv6.
