Tapo Bulb (L530B) and Tapo H200

Model: Tapo L530B

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version:

Hi,

I'm about start to start a small automation project.

Thinking of buying Tapo Bulb (L530B) and Tapo H200.

Since the Tapo Bulb (L530B) are Wi-Fi and no Hub required. Will they be connected to my router and utilizing by router bandwidth.

Or Instead they will be connected the Hub, so that my router is not clogged with the number of bulbs I attach.

I want a confirmation, that they will be connected to the hub and not the router, if I use a Hub.

Tapo L530 is a WiFi device and does not require a Tapo smart hub, it connects to the 2.4GHz WiFi directly.

Regarding the network connection type of a smart device, you may check its specification on the TP-Link website.

Thank you for a quick response.

So that means that buying the Hub won't make any difference.

If I buy 4 to 5 bulbs, it will be connected to the routers and clog up my network?
