Hi everyone, I’m experiencing an issue with Matter over Thread and have run out of ideas. Current Setup Homey Pro 2026 FRITZ!Box 7530 acting as DSL modem and DHCP server ASUS BT8 as Wi-Fi router Apple TV (latest generation) acting as Home Hub iPhone 15 Pro and MacBook, both running the latest sof…

Same issue for me with Bilresa on a Homey Pro 2026. Stuck on trying to communicate with device during setup.

[image] MCNose: Since the device update feature was introduced in Homey, my IKEA Matter devices are shown as having available firmware updates. However, every update attempt fails. The v13.3.0-update of Homey OS (released today), might address this, given the following fix mentioned in the ch…

Can say it does not. I bought some Bilresa with dial yesterday and I can’t pair them to my homey at all. Not through homey, not through iOS. I am particularly frustrated because some months ago I borrowed the exact same Bilresa from a friend to try it out and back then it worked perfectly. I have n…

Even more reason to report it to Athom :wink:. I assume that the more people report similar issues, the more attention it will get from them. This forum is not monitored actively by them, and their official channel for reporting issues is via their support team. I do understand your frustration of…

[image] MCNose: ASUS BT8 I bet your issue is here. The FRITZ!Box 7530 router isn’t able to send IPv6 into the Asus mesh and you have a double NAT issue. About a year ago I had the same issue I had a BT Home Hub as the top layer and a GLiNet Flint 2 for 2.4GHz separating IOT from my person…

Is there really that big difference between ASUS BT and ASUS ZenWifi AX routers? I’m running ASUS ZenWifi AX with mesh-network since few years, always IPv6 disabled and have no troubles running IKEA Matter over Thread. Just curious…

Thread can’t run without IPv6 so it’s clearly enabled somewhere in your stack

Correct me if I’m wrong but Matter is not using Your WiFi network’s IPv6. It’s using its own IP addressing from a Matter router (Homey, Google Home, Apple,…). “Even if your router has public IPv6 disabled, Matter devices on your Wi-Fi will automatically self-assign link-local IPv6 addresses (star…
