Hello there and thanks for reaching out! The New Matter enabled lights work over Thread. So they require a Matter-compatible smart home hub and a Thread border router. Examples of Matter-compatible Smart home hubs include but are not limited to: Apple HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) and (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Ethernet, Google Nest Hub (1st and 2nd gen), and Nest Hub Max. Examples of Thread border routers include but are not limited to Apple HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K (2nd generation) and (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Ethernet, Google Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max, Nanoleaf Lines, Shapes & Elements (requires version 8.5.1, coming soon)
