[Matter] IKEA DIRIGERA hub en IKEA Home smart - Central topic

When I ping Dirigera from tools, I get the following response. The Ipv4 IP address cannot be reached. Is that configured in Homey and if so. Should/can I update it to make it work again?

Is this actually the current IP4 adress of the Dirigera hub? If not maybe restart the hub?

Or maybe something in the network is blocking pings on IP4? At least in my setup this is working.

That’s an internal Docker address (Homey core and apps run inside a Docker container), no idea why it’s being shown.

For me the current IP4 adres of the Dirigera hub is shown in that spot. And the ping is working.

Yes that is the address. I can ping it from my computer, which is in the same network.

So your local network uses the 172.17.X.X segment?

Correct. Luckily, the lights reappeared in other rooms with names reset to default. Interesting, not really.

Hi everyone, since a couple of days ago i’m experiencing troubles with my matter linked dirigera hub. Homey reports the dirigera hub as unavailable with the message it’s been reset to factory defaults or externally removed from the network but this is not the case. In the meantime other zigbee devices and the ikea devices i added earlier keep working both from homey as well as the ikea app, but a newly added plug doesnt appear in homey and the dirigera appears unavailable.

A litte more detail:

I’m on a homey pro early 2023 12.9.0, Dirigera hub is on fw version 2.866.4.

Last weekend, i added several inspelning plugs and a gu10 light via the ikea home smart app and everything worked like a charm and appeared in homey, could be controlled etc etc.

A couple days later, around the time when i added an extra inspelning to the home smart app i noticed it didnt appear in homey like i was used to and homey reported the dirigera as unavailable with the above description.

As i mentioned the funny thing is that the other inspelning plugs and gu10 light can still be controlled via homey, also when i pull the power from the dirigera the other ikea devices become unavailable. So in other words, i just seems like homey lost sync with the dirigera or something.

What i’ve tried so far:

  • Rebooted the dirigera several times
  • Rebooted homey several times from the app
  • Removed the last inspelning from ikea home smart
  • Tried to repair the matter connection with dirigera (homey says it’s already added… doesnt seem like a repair attempt lol)
  • pinged the dirigera (works, 0% loss), interviewed the dirigera (works too)
  • searched the forum and didnt really find a clear solution

Can you please give me some pointers how to proceed? Thanks in advance!
