Hubitat Elevation range question.  I'm ditching my Wink 2 hubs, and replacing with the Hubitat Elevation hubs.Hubitat Elevation range question. I'm ditching my Wink 2 hubs, and replacing with the Hubitat Elevation hubs. I needed 2 hubs before. one at each end of my house. Will I need two Hubitats to cover the length of my house? It's about 60 ft between the hubs. Thanks!

You may be better "dropping" a cable in an interior closet, and placing a single unit to keep one single eco system.

@whaley0 - Makes sense. Is the Hubitat required to be hardwired?

@viator That I don't know. But I do know anytime you require a network connection wired is always going to be preferred.

I’d just buy repeaters. I did buy repeaters. Most of my stuff is zwave with a couple of zigbee bulbs. These plug in so never lose battery and are the backbone for my zwave network

But I still agree, if you can, it’s best to centrally locate the hub and wireless signal and build your mesh from there.  
The Smart Home Group is where you can always find questions, answers, advice, reviews & recommendations from other community members about smart home automation with zwave, bluetooth, and zigbee IOT devices.
