The Freebox integration allows you to observe and control Freebox router.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
switch | Switch or outlet | |
camera | Camera | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
alarm_control_panel | Security system | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (contact, motion) | |
sensor | Sensor (temperature) | |
button | Button (as a switch) | |
device_tracker | Presence (as an occupancy sensor) |
What people report
Freebox routers are polled locally via the FreeboxOS API; setup problems were solved by redoing authorization.
