The opportunity tracker for new startups.

wifi-association-presence

Home Assistant presence detection from Wi-Fi access point association tables: a device is home while it is associated (joined) to one of your APs, not merely seen in ARP or a switch's MAC table. Pluggable AP drivers: D-Link DAP, UniFi (via Home Assistant's UniFi integration) and OpenWrt.
