## Build Your Own Smart Home Brain

 Most smart home hubs are a black box you rent — pay monthly, hope the company doesn't get acquired or shut down. Ours is a small, silent MSI Ryzen box that sits in your cupboard and quietly runs everything locally: Home Assistant or openHAB, a local DNS cache, ad blocking, your own storage. You own it outright. Nothing about your home depends on someone else's server staying online. 

[Smart Home Controllers](https://homenetworks.com.au/smart-home-hubs?hsLang=en-au)

### Core platform

 Runs Home Assistant or openHAB, the brain that ties every device in your home together. 

### Local DNS Cache

 Faster lookups for every device on your network, resolved locally instead of round-tripping to your ISP. 

### Local Storage / NAS Share

 A private place for your files and footage that doesn't depend on someone else's cloud. 

### Pi-hole / AdGuard

 Blocks ads and trackers network-wide, before they ever reach a device. 

### Zigbee / Z-Wave

 Gives your smart devices a local radio to talk to, no cloud hub required. 

### MQTT Broker

 The quiet backbone most smart home integrations rely on to pass messages between devices. 

### Frigate NVR

 AI-powered camera detection that runs entirely on your own hardware, no subscription. 

### WireGuard/Tailscale

 Secure remote access into your home network without opening a single port. 

### Uptime Kuma

 A simple dashboard that tells you the moment something's actually gone down.

Do I need to be technical to use this?

 No. Starter and Prosumer tiers are managed entirely from a phone app. If you want to go deeper, we're happy to configure it and hand it over, or walk you through it. 

What if I want to add more later?

 Every tier is built to expand — more cameras, more access points, more automations — without replacing what you've already got. 

Do you install it, or do I?

 Both, your call. Every stack ships with a self-install guide, or we can install same-week if you'd rather not touch it. 

What if I already have some smart home gear?

 Most existing Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Wi-Fi devices integrate straight into Home Assistant or openHAB — tell us what you've got and we'll build around it. 

Is there a subscription?

 Only if you choose one, like cloud camera backup. The network, controller platform, and local storage have no ongoing fees.

We build networks for Aussie homes who've outgrown their ISP router or basic mesh WiFi. From prosumer WiFi and smart home automation (HAOS, openHAB) to mini PC home servers, we design systems that just work.
