I see! Shelly also has Ethernet enabled relays. It’s a bit of work to connect it with a socket to the power unit, but it’s possible. [https://www.shelly.com/products/shelly-pro-1](https://www.shelly.com/products/shelly-pro-1) AFAIK there’s no other way than a power cycle to bring Homey online, besides rebooting it automatically by checking the network state by using the [Net Scan app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-netscan-version-2-0-6-test-version-2-0-8/47454) for example. Add a new device, and create a Net Scan device which checks on your routers’ internal IP: ![Screenshot_20260320_183713_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/3/a380e54a8842285c0b036155d0fa3adcc78b4620.jpeg) (_if your router is only reachable by port 443 for example, use a Net Scan “TCP Port” device instead, to be able to define the port number_) - When it can’t reach the router anymore, start / restart a timer with a duration of, like, 15 minutes - When it can reach ths router again (within 15mins), pause that timer. - When the timer gets the chance to finish, reboot Homey ### Flow example: ![1215](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/c/3ce6e520f17dcfead02fd4b912a03c103930a622.jpeg) --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-connect-homey-pro-early-2023-with-ethernet-only-aka-disable-wifi/105701)._
