Hi,

I dabblesd with some Aqara devices, namely one of the original Aqara Huns (Chinese Mainland version) and some door/window and temp/humidity sensors.

While the devices are at either ends of the house, they initially connected (with weak signal) but no longer do.

I gather I can extend the range with other Aqara devices - but have a couple of questions;

• is this only powered (plug in) devices such as smart plugs (ie not window sensors etc) ?
• Are the Xiaomi devices interchangeable here (especially given my old hub) - some things I have read suggest they are ?
• If so, could I add a Xiaomi smarrt plug /device as a range boost?
• I can't seem to find any local providers of Aqara smart plugs (seems like the most useful option if door/windows sensors don't act as a repeater)

I've look for answers to the above, but no sites that I could find really cover my specific questions.

Thanks in advance.
