Cheers

It depends on what you are looking to do ie dual control apps ect

I am not sure the ETH02 can support all the new functions. Give it a try anyway and let us know



- schford - 11-24-2017

ok Ill start with that - am I right in thinking that only one thing at a time can talk to the ETH02 but more than one thing can with the ETH03.

My Pi box is all in and working waiting for my Samsung box to turn up this afternoon :-)

I havent bought new comfort stuff for ages where is best place to get an ETH03 in the UK any one got any reccomendations?

Cheers

I use either laser (the c-bus shop) or I think Hunters wholesale have started to sell comfort again. I thought I read that a eth04 is being released soon?


- schford - 11-24-2017

ohhh is there an eth4 coming if so will hold off!


- slychiu - 11-25-2017

ETH02 has one port. ETH03 has 2 ports

ETH04 is not coming out anytime soon unfortunately

No you dont need to Upgrade. Im running Eth02 it works fine. The only limititation is obviously it can only talk to one network device at a time.


- slychiu - 12-02-2017

That is good to know. The last of our ETH02 is gone so we couldnot verify

Yes I agree all working perfectly! Though its a pain to have to switch off to use comfigurator.

Comfort is just brilliant and the fact it now links to all this cool Voice and Cloud enabled stuff is jaw dropping :-)
