The devices support one connection type at a time. |

You can't connect via two methods at once, there is a single supported Ethernet model |

Your design is not totally clear to me, but did you consider running your own MQTT server? |

Not sure if you're using Android or Apple but the Android app supports connections to a node over the network (IP). Right now the Apple app looks nicer and has a bit better data visualization but the Android app has the better backend that allows more management options. |

I'm very new here, but i recently got into meshtastic for farm automation and disaster relief. I've got one node running and 10 on the way to distibute to family an neighbors for christmas. The initial contribution i want to make is to package the web client for publishing via start9, however there are some requirements that i need help finding/fulfilling.
Since the nodes will need to communicate with the web client, they would ideally need to be connected via ethernet (to the start9 node) AND bluetooth (phone). I'm unsure if this is possible as the documentation states only bluetooth OR wifi connections can be maintained simultaneously. This is not a deal breaker, as wifi connections to both are possible, but I think the ability to plug the meshtastic node into the ethernet port of the home lab or router, with an antenna outside of the home would be ideal for UX.
TLDR:
