Has anybody found a solution for adding a IKEA Dirigera as thread border router to a self hosted homey? In theory the self homey can talk with IKEA drigera through matter and the Dirigera is a thread router. But when making the connection it only syncs the zigbee devices. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks! ---

No clue sorry. At the moment all i get for my Thread Network is this ![IMG_8319](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/3/d37f26472d3fcd3d0785440012407b12142965c4.jpeg) Do you have other Thread network devices because the Ikea hub can join that thread network and help with coverage Ive tried Apple, Aqara, SmartThings and Ikea and none seem to show up in shs unfortunately I know a few others have faced this error screen. Currently waiting for a reply from support who have asked me to confirm I have a thread network. I do but homey cant seem to see it. Hopefully just an app glitch
