Hello, I would say I do have a complex pfSense install. Multiple networks, interfaces, vlans, service, packages, firewall rules, etc. Still only average 30% memory use (of 8GB) and current load averages show: 0.71, 0.55, 0.45 Bandwidth does not seem to be the issue as I am barely utilizing the available. This is not being polled via WAN. Let me know if you need any more info.

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
