Ethernet network (cable). Reolink Doorbell directly to the router, Homey via a switch. All on same Lan. ---

Have you tried connecting the doorbell to the same switch, just to test, to make sure router isn’t doing something funky ---

But they both use port 9000 for the initial connection and communicating settings etc, regardless of the ports/protocols used for the video/audio stream. And as the Homey app isn’t even seeing it, I just thought I’d ask about the ReoLink mobile app. Just trying to rule things out not knowing the exact network setup, that’s all. Any progress on the Omada app? ---

@K-G_Ohman Some thougts: - long shot: Since it’s saying no **new** devices found. Maybe one of the dozen attempts succeeded somehow and it’s already in listed devices? - Have you tried turning it off and on again? (Reolink doorbell & Homey) and then tried again? ---

Well it was a long shot after all. Tried rebooting both? Other than that I’m out of ideas. Since network / firewall has also been verified. If reboot doesn’t work maybe a diagnostic report for the developer might help getting an indication. ---

@Koktail Received the Reolink Magicam today. Added to the Reolink App via Home Hub then added to Homey. Everything appears as expected apart from the stream does not display, and the device icon is an Argus Pro 3, not a Magicam, but I presume you may not have the icon from Reolink yet.

In the Homey app go to apps, scroll to the ReoLink app and tap it. Then tap the gear ⚙ icon top right and you will see the Create Diagnostics Report button. Enter a description of what you’re testing/error you’re seeing and clicks Create. When the pop-up appears, copy the code and paste it into the message to the developer. A device does not need to be successfully added for it to work. ---

Thank you for the effort in getting things to this stage, but the pitfalls of employing an agency to produce the app are quite plain to see. Do the agency staff even have the most common devices to do their own troubleshooting? Have the agency been instructed to produce a knowledge base article on how to add the most common devices and what potential issues could arise during that process? Two years we waited for this integration, which was ‘announced’ to great fanfare. What a mess. ---

Thanks to several of you reporting issues with detection events (motion, person, vehicle, pet) stopping after a while, I was able to track down the root cause. What happened: when the ONVIF connection between Homey and your camera dropped, even briefly, for example due to a WiFi hiccup the app never reconnected. Events would silently stop and only a full app restart would bring them back. This is fixed in v1.1.3 (available on test). The app now automatically detects the lost connection and reconnects. ---

Actually the integration is way more complex than ‘what a mess’ suggests. We support a large range of devices and setups, including multiple generations of the same model and we’re continuously improving the integration. We also working closely with Reolink to improve compatibility and overall experience for Homey users. I think we may have a different view of what can be expected from an integration like this. Homey focuses on automation and triggers, not full real-time camera interaction like dedicated camera apps But if there’s a concrete issue you have, feel free to share the details. That’s what allows us to improved. ---

This can be a timing issue, did you test it without starting the app and just send the snapshot to your phone when there is a person detected? ---

v1.1.4 - Replaced async getCapabilityValue() checks with a synchronous in-memory activeAlarms set to track alarm state. This prevents race conditions where rapid ONVIF events could cause missed state changes for motion, AI detection, and doorbell alarms. v1.1.3 - Improved the ability logic and simplified capability detection for older models v1.1.2 - Added automatic ONVIF reconnection on timeout, the device now re-establishes the event subscription when the connection drops, preventing silent loss of motion/AI events [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-reolink/151761.md?page=7) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-reolink/151761.md?page=9)
