I’ve been using Xiaomi devices for a couple of months now without problems. I paired some buttons, window sensor, several temperature sensors all without problems ans still working without issues.
Recently I bought a few new sensors (button, cube, window sensor) but I can’t pair not one of them. Sometimes only the instruction to push the reset button appears, most of the time the 'adding device" page is showed but after a while ‘no zigbee decive found’ error.
Homey en Xiaomi Mi Zigbee ap are up to date en tried paired at several distances from Homey.
Sorry, forgot to mention. Yes, I restarted Homey (more than once). And PTP’ed more than a minute (also several times)
I’ve got the problems about 2 weeks, so also before the last Homey update. I have many apps running (26) but that was also the case when it was working. I removed soms barely used apps and disabled another but also no difference.
Between working en now I installed the Xiaomi Mi Home app for a robot vacuum and Luxaflex PowerView app.
During pairing I also tried keeping the device awake while pressing the reset/include button every few seconds.
I excluded 3 Philips Hue Dimmer Switches, PTP 1 minute and then I included one Xiaomi button. Then a PTP of 25 minutes. Try to include a Xiaomi Cube but got aan ‘something went wrong’ error. Just PTP’ed 1 hour but including not working
11 EndDevices and 1 router (lightbulb).Do I need more router devices?
I am facing the same issues. Adding Zigbee devices is a pain since I got over 30 devices. Those 30 devices include 4 Plugwise routers. In developer settings I see a mesh buildup. So Homey is not fully occupied. Adding devices works best when I am in my shed (1 plugwise router) with very poor wifi signal.
My wifi uses channel 1 and 6 so I am not interfering zigbee channel 11.
Same here. I guess we have to wait for the Zigbee rewrite that will follow after v2.0 release…meaning it will take a while. Or did you find a way around this issue @MartinNL or @herrie?
I have the problem that some sensors that i did add before i did have some routers are not working after some time.
I remove them and add them again but they never make a connection with a router and only work very close to the homey.
If i remove them i they are gone from the developer page.
If i add them again they come back with the same number on the developer list.
So the info of the sensor is still stored somewhere in homey or else thay show have gotten the a new number from the list and not the old one.
Is there a way to remove this info completely from homey so if i add them again they get a new number.
Or at least that is my thoughts about it.
I am not using the tradfri hub. I am not using the tradfri app either. generic ZigBee device will suffice.
They create a mesh. I have a mesh of 7 routers. (4x plugwise, 3x tradfri)
I thought that the devices using the Tradfri hub -also making use of the Zigbee protocol- would still take part in the same network…but seems I guessed wrong. However I do like the grouping of lights in the app; i.e. one ceiling light contains 4 GU10 spots. I can simply address a group using the gateway app. In that way I have 16 Tradfri spots/bulbs -that are routers- connected to the hub instead of directly to Homey.
@herrie, I am thinking of buying 3 Osram Smart+ plugs to see if they can improve the Zigbee network. Or do you think I’d better ditch the Tradri hub and see what happens if I connect all the Tradfri routers to Homey instead?
