Linksys Brings HomeKit to Velop Routers and Interview with Matthew Keasler
After some follow-up on Lutron blinds and HomeKit, we cover the meross HomeKit power strip, Senic outdoor Hue switch, Netatmo HomeKit doorbell camera, and Linksys updates its tri-band Velop router to include HomeKit.
Then we interview special guest Matthew Keasler, Senior Product Manager at Linksys! Matthew talks about his history with Apple (and his love of cables), and then discusses what Linksys is doing to protect users’ privacy.
