I realized you can order the SR20 Smart Hub via the Kasa app so I ordered one last night. Does anyone else have one yet that can provide feedback?

Well I got my SR20 installed and configured this evening and my first impression is one of disappointment. While it does have z-wave and ZigBee connectivity, it is limited to a small list of devices that are actually supported. The GE z-wave switches I installed for 3way use in anticipation of the SR20's arrival are NOT among the limited list of supported devices. It can see them and tell me what they are, bit tells me they are not supported.

I got mine as well, and while I'm pleased with it as a WiFi router, I too am disappointed. It looks like they're purposely excluding switches to make us buy only the TP-Link brand. I also ordered z-waze devices, excited to add new functionality to my Smart Home setup. Now I'm not sure this router is the right solution for me.Hopefully additional device support will come quickly.

Any word on how rapidly the list of supported devices will expand? If this is as good as it gets I'll be returning the router and getting something else.

I called them last night. They had no idea what was in the pipeline. Supposedly an engineer will be getting back to me. I'll post if they do.

SR20 is not sold officially yet, it's still under test, it will support more when it's ready.

I got a peek at the KASA product roadmap and it was enough to convince me to hold on to my SR20. Some of the cool pipeline stuff they are hoping to add: Honeywell and Ecobee thermostats, several brands of smart bulbs, Nest and Ring cameras, a few GE and Leviton switches, IFTTT support, and some cool new TP products like 2 outlet plugs, 3-way switches, and dimable switches.

Funny we must be hitting the reps with the same question. I got sent a copy as well. If all that came to pass I would be very happy. It's a bit disappointing to see many of the specific devices I already own are listed as Q3, and many of the Q1 and Q2 devices aren't finished yet. I do think I'll hang on to the SR20. I may keep an eye out for a deal on another hub to get things working now and look forward to combining everything into one system later this year.

Has anyone had issues connecting the Nest to their SR20 router?
