Not a doorbell, but wow, I have two Imou's and I can connect to them locally again. There was an earlier firmware that broke local connections: * https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RD2C67R (IPC-TA42-B) - Firmware v2.800.0000000.15.R * https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09W24KP3V (IPC-A43) - Firmware v2.800.0000000.16.R

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.
