Hello,
I've recently made a lot of tests and checks on a device called MHCOZY dry contact relay, available with ewelink cloud prebuilt in (and converted a couple of months ago with OpenBK).
even if the image says that it has an RF possibility, the one I have doesn't allow RF since it's missing all the components to support RF signals.
What I've found so far:
It mounts a BL602;
It works, apart original firmware, with the firmware available at: https://github.com/openshwprojects/OpenBK7231T_App
What I've found strange is as follows:
recently I've installed a wifi AP really near to the relay, since I needed it in the garden, it's at half a meter away from the relay, and also upgraded the firmware to latest version, after that the device took even half an hour to reconnect. But in AP it worked like a charm.
After some more investigation, custom build firmware, checks on everything I could, I found out that if this kind of device is too near to an AP, it won't connect easily.
Why I say this? Because after that, I've moved the device in my house to make some tests, and changed the AP used (the outside AP uses a different name than what I have in my home), and found out that if the RSSI is MORE than -55 (far) it will connect instantaneously.
Maybe this is something that anyone else noticed? something hardcoded or maybe poor quality wireless board? I'm pretty clueless.
