you can check with ESP32S3 module datasheet.
RE: Z1 - Borg357 - 03-03-2026
After working on trying to get my Z1 connected to my wireless.. I have failed after nearly 2 months now.. According to the ESP32S3 datasheets, it's 2.4mHz only. And it does support WPA2-PSK/WPA2-Enterprise, and WPA3-PSK/WPA3-Enterprise encyption.
My router is a Peplink Cellular Wi-Fi Router MAX BR1 Mini. And WILL NOT CONNECT TO IT.
So, my fix is to buy another AP point, and get that working. Which works as of now. But I have to run two WiFi AP points in my Van.
I'll keep working with it, as I blame the Peplink.
Peplink has been working with me, however, after not hearing from them for over 1 month now, I think they have given up on helping me out.
Just an FYI. Thank you for your time.
ps. Will you be creating a Z1 unit, with an Ethernet jack? An Ethernet jack would solve all my issues.
Thanks

what resource you have used? zigbee? or ?
RE: Z1 - Borg357 - 03-04-2026
Resource? I'm trying to connect via WiFi, and I'm ONLY trying to connect at this moment. I haven't got to set up the whole unit, untill it's connected to my WiFi.

we have many ethernet board, i just want to know, if you connect Z1 by ethernet, what you want do? such as connect with a zigbee sensor? receive RF signal? or send IR signal?

I finally installed another AP board, and I got the Z1 to connect to this board. Now it's connected to my network, abd I can log in, and save everything fine.
I activate the "MQTT(HA): connected". It shows connected.
However, when going to HA, it does not show up at all in Home Assistant.
Since this is a RF/IR only board, do you have to have a learned frequency first, or should it just show up in HA without anything learned yet?
Thanks

if you want use IR and RF in home assistant, need learn signal firstly. then enable mqtt auto discovery for home assistsant.
RE: Z1 - Borg357 - 04-09-2026
I Learned 5 IR Outputs.
Saved and rebooted the Z1.
Rebooted the HA, and still NO Z1 in the MQTT area.
