Stop working after few months((( This is my second bridge. First one has worked for over a year. The second one stop working after TWO months(((

I bought this device as part of a package that included a door lock. Setup took some time because it struggled to connect to my home Wi-Fi, but once connected, it worked well for over a year. I later moved away for work and used it to track the movements of people entering and exiting the premises. A few months ago, the bridge suddenly stopped working, incorrectly claiming the Wi-Fi password was wrong. I eventually gave up on the bridge, as it now only works sporadically. Buyers beware: reliability is a concern. For reference, the Wi-Fi connection at the location where the bridge is plugged in consistently reads 2 out of 3 bars for signal strength.

I purchased this to go with my DB2 smart locks for exterior garage entries. Placed it in a room between the two exterior door and it connected both to WiFi. I do have a mesh wifi with excellent connection to the garages as well which probably helps. Have had no issues with dropped connections since installed last fall. Worked throughout the -30c weather. Doors were fairly new and fiberglass so there was limited expansion and contraction for the deadbolt to deal with. Linked well to google home. Looking to possibly try 2 more for the main home soon!

I have a separate Alfred bridge specifically for each of my 4 Alfred locks. Each of the bridges is within 7 feet of the lock, most within line of site with no obstruction, some going through 1 wall, which should be expected as not everyone has an outlet directly next to the door. I am lucky to be able to get them all within 7 feet of the locks. But Bluetooth is flakey and in my opinion should not be used for such an important connection. These connect bridges work very well when the lock status is changed (lock or unlock) and it needs to report back to the app, but if you try to control the lock offsite or even on site through wifi it almost always errors out. My best guess is Alfred servers aren't up to the task of handling incoming requests. It usually takes about 5 times for a request to take (such as adding a code)... the first 4 it error out, the 5th makes it to the lock. Upsetting.
