Securing My Smart Home Networks With Raspberry Pi Pico W

Update: This is pre-Home Assistant and I've made quite a few changes, still maintaining outer and inner "ring" architecture. I will do another video on my network architecture at some point.

I may be overly cautious, but I don’t like letting the devices that affect the physical world have access to the internet directly. So, I do something a little different that a few viewers have asked about.

If you’re interested in trying this for yourself, here are a few links to help you get started:


Pico W firmware with required network module:

You’ll need the umqtt package as well, available through the usual package managers..

The code (modify for your own purposes. I take no responsibility for the results of your shenanigans):
