Smart Fan (Optional Feature)

Some GL.iNet routers expose fan status and threshold settings through the device API. When that data is available, the integration surfaces it in Home Assistant.

Setup Configuration

The fan feature does not require a separate option to be enabled. It is available automatically when the router reports fan data through the API.

Exposed Entities

Entity	Type	Description	API Source
Fan status	binary_sensor	Whether the fan is currently running.	fan/get_status
Fan speed	sensor	Current fan speed in RPM. Includes running and temperature_threshold attributes when supported.	fan/get_status
Fan threshold temperature	sensor	Configured temperature at which the fan starts, in °C (read-only display).	fan/get_config

The fan trigger temperature cannot be changed from a number entity. Use the set_fan_temperature service below to update the threshold.

Actions (Services)

The following service is registered under the glinet_router domain:

set_fan_temperature

Sets the router's fan trigger temperature.

Field	Type	Required	Description
temperature	integer (70-90)	Yes	New trigger temperature in Celsius.
mac	string	No	Target a specific router by MAC address.

Example:

action: glinet_router.set_fan_temperature
data:
  temperature: 75
