Thread border router

A device that connects a Thread mesh to the rest of your home Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

Without a border router, Matter-over-Thread devices cannot talk to phones and Wi-Fi apps. Examples often documented by platforms include HomePod mini, Nest Hub (2nd generation), Echo (4th generation), and Home Assistant Yellow / Connect ZBT. Those are typical radios, not a hub CSA requires, and not a test of any catalog product.
