I unfortunately HAD to get a stupid thermostat with wifi. can’t even get one without it now. I’d much rather have it not hooked up but I may be forced to.
How can I put this on a VLAN and block all it’s telemetry? It’s a honeywell. Can i put it on my VLAN and then use mullvad DNS to block all the shit?
“They” are saying it has to be on wifi so it can see the outdoor temp to talk to the heat pump. Bullshit i say.
I didn’t think so. That appears to be encrypted dns over https, not dns lookup blocking for specific devices for specific ad/telemetry domains
They do have DNS for ad blocking and such too. I only found it yesterday. Not sure how good it is compared to nextdns
