❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does iHost work without internet?
Yes! That’s the core purpose. All automations, scenes, and Zigbee device control run locally on the device. Internet is only needed for initial setup and firmware updates.
Can it replace my NSPanel Pro?
They serve different roles. The NSPanel Pro is a wall-mounted touchscreen panel. The iHost is a headless local hub β€” no screen, but more powerful for advanced automations, Node-RED, and private data storage. Many users run both together.
Does it support Alexa / Google Home?
The iHost itself is local-only and doesn’t directly integrate with Alexa or Google Home. However, Zigbee devices added to iHost can also be managed via the eWeLink app for cloud-based voice control.
How many devices can it handle?
Up to 128 Zigbee sub-devices. Add Zigbee routers (like SONOFF smart plugs) to extend range and capacity. WiFi LAN devices are also supported via the eWeLink Smart Home add-on.
Does it work during load shedding?
Yes β€” if you provide backup power (5V 2A USB). Connect to a UPS or USB power bank and your local automations keep running through load shedding. This is a key advantage over cloud-dependent hubs.
Can I use Node-RED?
Yes! Node-RED comes as a built-in add-on. Create complex visual automations with flows, triggers, and custom logic. Perfect for advanced users.
