i had a homey early 2019 with the ikea app.  
after a few days the parasoll door sensors stopped working. when the door was closed , the keep “saying” the door is still open. After restarting the app in my homey or disconnecting the battery again the cam online again.

since yesterday i have a home pro 20219. And i noticed that there is no conntection with my 3 doorsensors and the temperature mesuerement. After restarting the app they are online and after a few minutes they are offline again…  
is this a know problem??

I guess you mean Homey Pro (early 2023), right?

Might be influencing performance:  
Is your 2.4GHz wifi channel set to a fixed channel?  
If no, set it to preferably 1, 6 or 11  
If yes, check if the zigbee channel is set to one with the least chance to interference.

Thankx! My 2.4 network was set to “auto”.  
I changed it to 11. Hopefully this works.  
If not, how/where van i change the zigbee channel in the homey?

Changing the wifi channel is the easy way, but the zigbee channel can be viewed and changed here:  
[https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/zigbee)  
It might be possible some devices need to be re-paired afterwards.

Or, when you don’t bother to start over with zigbee, just reset the zigbee implementation.  
The procedure finds a quiet channel automatically.

Keep in mind close neighbours’ wifi signals can interfere sometimes.

Ah, ok. So you had to build the Zigbee network from scratch.

Beside the tips from @Peter_Kawa , I hope you followed also the support article [Creating a stable Zigbee network with Homey Pro](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360019239879-Creating-a-stable-Zigbee-network-with-Homey-Pro) for Homey Pro (2016 - 2019).  
What should also be taken into account is that end devices (battery-powered devices) should be added at the installation location to the Zigbee network.

Changing the Zigbee channel of Homey after you have already set up a Zigbee network is not recommended by Athom. At least that’s what an Athom support employee once told me.
