I get an UNREACHABLE error after about 15 sec in Homey app - is this a known issue ? ---

> [@MarkLajer](#): > > I get an UNREACHABLE error after about 15 sec in Homey app - is this a known issue ? This mostly happens because the setup instructions have not been followed correctly or the device is missing a sensor needed for this app to function. If you are 100% sure you have followed the instructions correctly you can save the output of http://\<\\>:\<\\>/sensors.json in a textfile and send it to me as zip file and I’ll have a look what is going on. ---

Hello @Phuturist and thank you for your work on this app! I get the same as @MarkLajer mentioned. I set up device, press “test connection” all is good. Save camera and after 8 seconds approximately the device is offline. I can access the camera from my desktop browser without any problems. Motion detection works, when tested via browser control page. But device still offline in Android IP Webcam App. Says “Device is unavailable” Unreachable. I have a brand new Homey. Camera is running on Galaxy S7 phone. The output of sensors.json you mention above is just empty brackets: {} ---

> [@freyr](#): > > Ahh, had not. Have now. Log file can be seen here: You are missing the soundevent and sound alarm nodes. Either your phone does not have a microphone or you have not enabled sound alarm in IP Webcam. I assume it’s the latter. Please follow all the steps from the description in the app store. ---

Is there any way to install the 1.2.8 version? I’m trying to stay on the stable homey releases and 2.2.0 is still not out which means I can’t install this app right now. ---

You could do a command line install (search the forum for it) and install the previous release which can be downloaded from the releases tab on GitHub (link to GitHub in the app description in the app store). ---

You will have to wait till firmware 2.2.x is released to stable or install the experimental firmware 2.2.x or install an older release through the command line using GitHub. Firmware 2.2.x should not take to long to become stable I guess. ---
