Hello all, I did reset one of my remote controls and can not add it anymore. I know ikea is always very difficult to add but this one is killing me. Tried 20 times allready. I have te homey pro (new) I tried adding the device on different places in my house. Close and far away from the Homey. I tried adding over windows with Google Chrome and also my Samsung Ultra with Android. I press buttons every two seconds to keep the device ‘awake’ Restarted Homey Restarted Ikea tradfri app Tried repair The messages that i get are different: Can not connect Device allready added (not showing anywhere) Please help. ![1000074479](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/c/3/c3deeb1c59cbcdc173331a953b63f64a1becbd09.jpeg) ![1000074476](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/2/6/26482e4f32f8bbd2c777837e94f70347da82def0.jpeg) ![1000074432](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/5/45142334dd3672152d2bb99606282d71de639237.jpeg) ![1000074475](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/e/1edd73e26457acb6a34474db646d292609ce5335.jpeg) ![1000074474](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/7/07ffa7cfd809049353f75135a475fe149a668963.jpeg)
