Do you have a custom activation sentence (instead of 'OK Google') and is that why that portion is muted? If so, can you make a tutorial on how to change it? I've read about it (using the Tasker App and whatnot), but it seemed quite complicated.

Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

If I’m just setting this up in my room where there is no router, will this still work?

You need to connect the ethernet from the router to the hub otherwise it won't work.

You would have to get a wifi extender that with a ethernet port and connect via that.

Ok then, the only the you could do is setup the light to come on with a timer set and really nothing else beyond that as you can't use google home or alexa. You also won't be able to remotely turn on the lights. You would be better off getting a socket with a built in timer and connect to a lamp.

I can do literally everything without this hub and I just bought it for 50+ dollars 🤦🏾 no reason what so ever to even buy one of these thing's I don't get why these are sold. Guess I'll have to dig deep or something

Hub can store automations, let’s you configure accessories (since the proper Hue system uses Zigbee), let’s you sync lights with your computer, adds HomeKit compatibility, out of home control with Hue app, etc.
