I’d like to add a smart button to my HA setup. I don’t have zigbee signal nearby, so I’m wondering what the best way to do this would be.
I’m using a Skyconnect dongle. There’s wifi nearby. I want to control a smart switch nearby, which would also have zigbee but that also wouldn’t reach the distance I need.
Is Matter a solution here? With a hub connected to wifi that bridges to the button?
Any suggestions on hardware?
Or any other suggestions?
have a look at Shelley smart devices. They have a wifi button that’s fully compatible with Home Assistant. Not the cheapest in the world but the quality is excellent. No Zigbee needed.

Thanks, someone else mentioned these and it seems like the best option so far.
