Since this night my Homey Pro has become unreachable via the app or my pc. All my home automation that do not require a network are still working, but the Homey is unreachable. I have tried updating the firmware by connecting it to my pc this morning, without any success.
My internet is working fine, so that’s also not an issue. Anyone has any ideas? Before I do a factory reset…
Same here. I have two of them at home and at the office.
Both went offline. A restart helps sometimes to get it connected again but it will go offline again suddenly.
I contacted the support and they asked me to switch the WiFi from 2.4 to 5 GHz.
Not a solution from my point as when it goes offline it doesnt run scenes or control devices. Every kind of connection seem to go.
Alright, after putting it in setup mode I notice my 5ghz could no longer be detected. I connected it to my 2.4ghz network and am now able to use it again. Let’s see for how long it lasts!
I stupid question, do I have to setup my home as a new device when I do this?
When I select my existing homey it tells me it is offline also after I pressed the setup button for 8 sec.
Yes, and no.
Once you brought it in setup mode, select add new homey. It will search for your homey and find it. Follow the app till you get to the screen where it tells you that the Homey is already set up. At this point you click the blue button to exit the setup. below is a red button for factory reset.
At the beginning it looks like you add a new device as the steps are the same.
I did it for both of my Homeys now and it seems to work so far. No issues during setup procedure.
