The new Home Assistant Connect ZBT-2 is here.

I just bought and setup the Connect ZBT-1 a few weeks ago... 😭

Is this gonna be better than the blue USB dongle sold as Thread and Zigbee but it couldn’t do both at the same time? I’m still annoyed at that

They are upfront about the fact that it will only do one or the other this time, at least...

Not only that, but they said they tried really hard but weren't able to make it work reliably (though they don't go into the reasons why).

I still have Multiprotocol on SkyConnect, but only a dozen devices. Still didn’t bother to reconfigure.
