Smart Recessed Lighting advice needed

I doubt it. I’m finding that these Halo bulbs are incredibly strong and can pick up a signal at very long distance with zero repeating. I have three Sengled bulbs one wall away within 10 ft of the hub and find that they will still route through a Halo before going to that hub. There are Halos above the hub, but they are 20-ft up in the air.

You can try to force those bulbs to reroute by unplugging your hub for 20 plus minutes. While that is going on have the halo bulbs off at the switch so they have no power. This will send the Sengled bulbs into a frenzy to find a route. After the 20 or so minutes, plug the hub back in and still leave the Halo lights switched off. After you know the Sengled bulbs work, try turning the Halo switch back on. No guarantee they won’t reroute to the Halo again, but it gives you a chance.

I’ve been having no problems for about a week now, but that required a ton of troubleshooting. I ended up having to move my hub to a different room in my house. There seemed to be something blocking my signal to the Sengled bulbs only. Now that I’ve moved the hub, they’re staying connected even though some are still routing through a Halo.
