Honestly, it hasn't hiccupped yet. It said Alpha, but i figured it was worth trying. Native HE driver, works great.īut then, i found the app written by Mr Taylor linked below. ![]() Those zwave locks work perfectly on both my C5 hub and my new C7 hub i just migrated to. I figured i can use them in man doors in the garage worst case if i ever get august wifi locks working. Thinking i was at a dead-end, i bought 2 of the 3rd gen august locks.

These locks seem to have weaker wifi radios in them, the batteries only last a month for me, and had to crank my 2g wifi up more than i would like to in order to keep them on network. The only smart lock i have been able to get her to accept is the new smaller august WiFi lock, with its BLE auto-unlock that actually works pretty darn well. The WAF is one of the biggest challenges for me in my smart home obsession. Want to do a quick write up to help others if i can.
