when will Cube OS support pairing Wi-Fi devices without the need for an internet connection so that the system can really be used as a local device. and use the Wi-Fi network to which it is connected. if I haven’t missed something, the ewelink add-on and internet connection are required for Wi-Fi devices. some Wi-Fi devices do not have a replacement in zb.
Sometimes they say they’re going to do it, but depending on how they’re doing, it never will be.
The community has been dreaming about a virtual thermostat for a long time now and they’re not responding.
I don’t think Wi-Fi-only devices will ever be able to be added directly to CUBE OS. 
Only devices that support Matter Over Wi-Fi will be able to be added locally to CUBE OS.
