> [@Kaoh](#): > > added a router device to resolve that Unfortunately even when you add a router, it doesn’t necessarily means that particular device will route over it, mostly Aqara devices misbehaves in this. On the other side, more routers is always better to create stable mesh. When you recreated your Zigbee mesh, you followed simple rule - first routers, battery powered devices second, right ?

I see some issues since that version as well, randomly disappearing devices from mesh, almost have to do repair every week while it was stable for a year for me. I suspect this change : ```auto **Zigbee** * Fixes an issue that caused unnecessary communication with devices. ``` But it’s just my observation, which could be wrong. > [@Kaoh](#): > > Can you point me to the WebApi script?

(Ofcourse [Flow Checker App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/a/com.athom.flowchecker/) can indicate the broken flows) I made a small script which can help with fixing the flows.

I do have Matter over Thread devices (one to test the concept), do you have experience that it works badly with Zigbee? This device is my only Zigbeen device, next to the router device, that I really use as part of the home automation. ---

I remember it happened during my abroad trip that started two days before and when I got back I noticed the misbahior of the device. > do you use as well experimental versions Not on this HP, I have others for that but they dont have Zigbee devices managed.

> [@Kaoh](#): > > I do have Matter over Thread devices (one to test the concept), do you have experience that it works badly with Zigbee? Let’s just say that other home automation platforms that use the same Zigbee/Thread hardware as Homey advice to not run Zigbee and Thread together on the same chip due to possible issues. But as @Sharkys already pointed out, around the time your issues started, Athom also published a new firmware with some Zigbee changes, so it could also be that. Due to lack of log files or other debugging information, it’s basically impossible to pinpoint an exact cause. ---

Thanks, ill get me a zwave alternative as a backup device, lets see if this gets fixed. @Sharkys full removal/add seems to still be working. Maybe that fixes it for the long run also. ---

With matter activated on the Aqara E1 hub you can make (most of) the devices connected to the hub available in Homey by means of Matter. ---

Unknown means unsupported. You’ll have to wait for support or use a workaround like using an Aqara hub that supports Matter, or a different Zigbee controller like zigbee2mqtt. ---
