FAQs
- Is the Philips Hue Bridge wireless? Can I set it up with Wi-Fi?
No, you must connect your Philips Hue Bridge to your router with an Ethernet cable
How much distance can there be between my Philips Hue Bridge and my Philips Hue light bulbs?Because your light bulbs can all communicate with one another via ZigBee, you only need one bulb to be within range of the Hue Bridge. Generally this means that your closest bulb should be no more than 98 feet away from your Hue Bridge, though the maximum distance may vary based on factors like ceiling, wall, and floor materials
Can I use my Philips Hue Bridge and smart light bulbs with my regular dimmer switch?No, as this can lead to bulb breakage and unwanted light flickering. You can however buy an additional Philips Hue dimmer switch designed specifically to be used with Philips Hue products.
