Hows that working software-wise in HA? One running in Z2M, the other ZHA?
I'm not running Z2M and ZHA together though. Just ZHA and Matter. But I've read that running Z2M and ZHA with two dongles is no problem in HA you just have two separate networks
Remembered I have a Conbee III laying around so I flashed it to the OpenThread firmware. Turns out, HA itself handles the devices (you add matter devices in HA settings) and the Conbee is really just the antenna. So no container like Z2M or deconz in the middle. That makes a whole different situation than I assumed above. Documentation was not intuitive but I got it going for me, which is nice
