Finding a suitable location Lightcloud uses a wireless mesh network to connect devices such as the Dimmer to the Gateway. Unlike a WiFi router, each Lightcloud device may connect another device to the network. If there is a clear line of sight between two Lightcloud devices, they can be placed up to 1000 feet apart. If the two devices are separated by ordinary drywall construction, try to keep them within 100 feet of each other.
