The Huawei LTE router and modem integration for Home Assistant allows you to observe and control Huawei LTE devices.

In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge

What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
