Home Network Detection

You can (optionally) define an internal URL of your local home network which is typically a faster connection. The Internal URL is used when the WiFi SSID of your home network is detect or the internal url is ping-able (ping can be explicitly be turned off for some cases where ping can be slow). You can defined one or multiple home network SSIDs.

Example

  • Home Assistant URL: https://1234321234331.ui.nabu.casa
  • Internal URL: http://homeassistant.local:8123
  • Home Wifi SSID: MyWifi1, MyWifi2

If the current WiFi SSID is MyWifi1 the internal URL would be used. If the current WiFi SSID is AntoherNetwork the Home Assistant URL would be used.
