Huawei LTE
huawei_lte
The Huawei LTE router and modem integration for Home Assistant allows you to observe and control Huawei LTE devices.
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 | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) | |
button | Button (as a switch) | |
select | Mode picker (as switches) | |
device_tracker | Presence (as an occupancy sensor) |
What people report
Huawei LTE modems and routers are polled locally; USB-stick E3372 setup failures reported with no maintainer fix.
