I have a set of Samsung washer and dryer that can be hooked up to Samsung SmartThings. I have no interest in making a Samsung account and having my washers and dryers communicate with anything outside of my network.

But since it has some kind of "smart" functionality, I was wondering whether anyone has been able to get this information without ever onboarding it with SmartThings?

Both machines set up their own WPA2-protected WiFi network when running.

Yeah, that was as far as my own research took me as well. Thought I'd give it a shot to see if anyone had figured out how to or knew whether it was possible.

I did not buy these devices for these features at all, so no great loss, but would be nice to make use of it if I could.
