Smartthing Hub in Australia?

[JDRoberts]

@Craig_Ashton

Hi All, I have purchased SmartThing Hub from Amazon but live in Australia, while I have not set it up yet I gather this unit will not work here?

It will work there, but it is a criminal offense to use the US or UK Z wave frequency in Australia, as it can interfere with local mobile phones.

See the following:

Smartthings for Australia?

Hi I heard that smartthings will be made available in Australia earlier this year, but since then I haven’t heard anything and some people in other forums have said that this will not be made available in Australia. Has anyone purchased a UK or US smartthings and used it in Australia, are there any gotchas that someone looking to do this will need to keep in mind. And, any devices that you are using that you can suggest (light switches and poweroutlets ?)? If not are you using another hub, like Wink 2 ?
