tado° smart thermostat + Ubiquiti UniFi
Works well together
Independent WiFiXpert score. No sponsorship, no shopping link, no manufacturer input.
We see very few problems putting a tado° smart thermostat on a Ubiquiti UniFi. Set it up on the main Wi-Fi name and it should simply stay put.
What it looks like when it goes wrong
- Occasional drop-outs after a power cut or a router restart.
Do these, in this order
- 1
Restart the router, wait two minutes, then restart the gadget.
- 2
Check the bridge is still plugged into the new router.
- 3
Restart the bridge by unplugging it for 30 seconds.
Settings we'd recommend on the Ubiquiti UniFi
- • Switch on the multicast/mDNS forwarding option so speakers and cameras can be found.
- • Keep the gadget and your phone on the same network, and turn off client isolation on that network.
Good to know about this router: Very powerful, but its default settings block the background chatter that a lot of smart-home kit needs. Separate networks (VLANs) are easy to create here and are the most common cause of 'my app can't find it'.
If none of that works
- If the gadget only ever sits in one spot, a wired connection is always the most reliable answer.
