Why do I need a hub??
Many smart devices use WiFi. This can be convenient, but it can bog down your WiFi and add potential security risks. YoLink devices only connect to a YoLink hub, and the hub is the only thing that connects to your network.
Will it work without internet or WiFi?
The hub does require an internet connection. It uses a 2.4 GHz WiFi connection, and/or ethernet (plug into your router). It will not work without an internet connection.
How many devices can I put on my hub?
There is no set number, but we encourage you to get a second hub when you approach 200 devices. That will ensure a single failure later will not keep anything from working. And, adding a second hub can expand the range of your system.

GET THE HUB!!!
I got the Yolink Hub to control my Yolink Motorized Water Valve from anywhere in the world. The LoRA technology makes it very convenient to place the HUB anywhere in the house. I am using WIFI and it works like a charm. Also, this thing is super super simple to connect to my 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Yoling for the WIN !!!

Amazing automation
We have a 4000 sq ft home with 4BR and 4 baths. Our well system was not able to deliver enough GPM for both the home and irrigation system. So we installed a 2500 gallon fresh water tank along with all the other needed check valves, float switches and 3HP 3 phase pump with VFD control. We purchased three Yolink powered valves to control water flow along with their pressure depth sensor and hub. It’s easy to see the hard work that went into creating these products. Install was super simple and worked the first time. In the future we may add water sensors to the home. But for now just enjoying the automation at our well pumps.

Happy with YoLink
I bought the valve, controller and several sensors for a water link detection system from YoLink. I had an issue with the controller, and YoLink quickly sent me another which solved the problem and now the system works very well. Contact with their tech support was quick and easy both online and by phone, which earns huge points in my book. No long wait times, they were very quick to answer my call and very quick to respond to emails, and they solved my problems and answered my questions very well. Good customer service – 5 stars. I wish all companies had this kind of service. I later bought the hub and another sensor and added them to the system. The installation was a breeze. Couldn’t have been easier. The products were well made and well packaged and easily connected to the hub and the app. A hint that I would pass on if you are pairing sensors to the controller without the hub and app: Close the valve first, then pair the sensor to the controller, then open the valve and then test with water on the sensor contacts. Repeat for other sensors to install. Don’t try to pair with the valve open is the key – be sure it’s closed. Thanks YoLink for a good product that does exactly what it’s supposed to do and at what I believe is a very fair price.

I’m impressed with the hardware but not impressed with their documentation.
This is the main piece for the Yolink automation and monitoring systems. It’s easy to set up as I have installed it in my equipment closet under the stairs to my attic right in the middle of my home. It gives plenty of range for all the devices and their interaction seems to be solid. My only concern as a former programmer is that they don’t provide adequate written documentation. Right now they depend on YouTube videos. I am, though, very satisfied with the hardware itself and plan to use it. And the manufacturer has assured me that they will work with me to figure out the programming.

Excellent device
Having used a lot of home automation devices over the years (including X-10 and Z-Wave), this one is superior. Their installation process is quick and simple. They supply QR codes to get you started. The smart phone app is easy to use and intuitive. Another good thing is there are no fees to operate it unless you have a lot of sensor activity (high SMS traffic), but the fees are modest. I have heard that integrating to Alexa might be a problem but since I don’t use that, I don’t care.Having just installed it, only time will tell if it is truly a winner. However, since the hubs are inexpensive, I plan on getting a spare. I believe that installing a new or multiple hubs is pretty easy also.After using this for 6 weeks, I still find it to work very well. The only issue I have encountered is the area I am in has sporadic but brief power outages which can disrupt the operation of the dimmers and switches.

Very good product, but Original HUB started having issues.
My original HUB which was part of the “Smart Home Starter Kit”, was sporadically loosing its internet connection (after 2 yrs). Being out of warranty, I opted for the same product as I haven’t seen better, and customer service in the past was excellent. Newer HUB is smaller and very easy to set up, I hope it will last longer. Definitely the original became faulty. I have this in use with their (4) water detectors, which have worked well. But originally, I had one faulty sensor which the company did replace, and the replacement is working well.Very happy with this product, and have a sense of calm now, especially after having experienced water leak damage before purchasing this product.

La configuración no batallé con el cable ethernet, batallé un poco con el WiFi pero finalmente quedó configurado. Le conecté dos sensores de energÃa y lo reconoció de inmediato.La aplicación está muy intuitiva. Y buena calidad de los productos, el HUB, el cable de alimentación y el eliminador de corriente. Todo de excelente calidad. El Hub y 1 sensor los puse en la Oficina y el otro sensor de energÃa en la farmacia que queda a 1 cuadra de la oficina. Gran alcance.

Signal strength is great for far away compatible accessories like my motion sensor in the backyard. This allows me to integrate my sensors with my alarm and lights as a dterrant for people and animals. Very compact so fits in tiny space. Clear and easy instructions to pair devices

Needed this to act as a hub for a smart thermometer which I had bought for monitoring freezer temperature. Installation was very simple using the free app. Range is great so there was no problem finding somewhere to have it sit out of the way. It supports multiple devices so can be used for other smart devices.

Not much a user needs to do. The unit is easy to set up and works great. It requires a Hub, which is a great add-on as the application supports multiple devices. The iPhone app is straightforward to understand and use. The unit can be installed in various rooms. I am using it for a business computer room. I have tested a power failure and the alarm as the messaging system works well. I am pleased with this purchase.

Compré este concentrador para poder controlar las funciones de la válvula de agua inteligente YoLink desde mi teléfono inteligente. Fue fácil conectarlo a mi red. Instalé la aplicación YoLink en mi teléfono y escaneé el código QR del producto debajo de la unidad. La aplicación pudo encontrarlo rápidamente. Sin problemas. Configuración fácil. El alcance es bastante bueno. La señal es lo suficientemente buena como para atravesar paredes y suelos de hormigón con facilidad.
