@Daniel-zhan-itead @liangjia2019 @guozi7788 I like to suggest that ITead also releasing a new official Zigbee Router device firmware mage based on latest EmberZNet NCP 7.4.x.0 version for your Silicon Labs EFR32MG21 based “Sonoff Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus V2” (model “ZBDongle-E”, a.k.a. "Dongle-E”) as an optional firmware:

Note that the current Zigbee Router firmware based on EmberZNet 6.10.3.0 is working great and is already much appriciacted, it is just that it would be nice if the was an optional updated Zigbee Router firmware version that can be tested (as experimental at first before it can recommended).

EmberZNet 6.10.3.0 version is going on in age and even trough it works great a newer version should hopefully provide bug-fixes, etc..

FYI, Silabs Zigbee EmberZNet 8.0.0.0 will soon be released but that is probably a little too cutting-edge, however, it would still be nice if you could provide both pre-release Zigbee Router 7.4.3.0 and experimental 8.0.0.0 Zigbee Router firmware for testing:

Note! Warning and be aware that Zigbee EmberZNet 8.0.0.0 and new SDK could potentially contain several breaking changes to build commands/scripts,
but should hopefully not affect Zigbee Router device functions.

+1 on the EmberZNet 7.4.x.x Zigbee Router device firmware.

I am using ZBDongle-E with firmware 7.4.3.0 as a coordinator in Home Assistant with ZHA, which is working great. I tried adding another ZBDongle-E with router firmware 6.10.3.0 to get better Zigbee coverage, which unfortunately does not work. (it won't accept any device bondings or mesh with the Zigbee network).

So hoping an updated router firmware will fix that.

Same, I would greatly appreciate a new router firmware build based on 7.4. The current router firmware is over 2 years old. @liangjia2019
