Hello,

The device is a Cherubini MetaHome Gateway, and I want to use it to control the Cherubini motors of my retractable glass terrace ceiling. These motors use 433 MHz rolling code, and the gateway supports that (in addition to z-wave). It works fine if right next or in a good angle to the motors, but once I put where I need to place it, it doesn't connect well.

Initial research shows that adding an antenna is not too crazy of an idea (I have a soldering kit, although little experience). However, I fail to see where to start. Is there anything here that looks like an antenna to you, on which I could expand?

Thanks!

Hello,

ok, technically not broken yet, on the other hand, doesn't exactly do as I want and might need manual improvement, so hope it's still okay.
