@Robert_Zwetsloot Did you also try the test version of the MQTT Client (v2.4.2)? > **[MQTT Client](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.scanno.mqtt/MQTT-Client/)** > > Abonneer op MQTT topics ---

@Robert_Zwetsloot The cards mentioned in the store are related to the MQTT Device: A virtual device with the ability to bind capabilities to mqtt topics. The master branch already got some fixes for the MQTT Device, will bump the version soon. ---

In my attempt to be complete I mentioned the wrong version šŸ™„ā€¦ I do run the MQTT Client (v2.4.2). Hub version 3.0.1 has been updated automatically this night and nested smoothly without the need to restart the client! Flow cards, after adding a MQTT device, are working too., ---

All is runming smoothly here too. Just updated to Hub v3.0.1 (Client already was on v2.4.2). Thx for the updates! Now that we switched in The Netherlands to summertime last night, time in the log files are off. It report 2 hours earlier. Same happens in both the Client and Hub logs. This wasnā€™t the case yesterday, when we were still on wintertime. ![SmartSelect_20210328-135558_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/b/bba4cfe89a9e2a2e1db542297933bb72c51f4fc4.jpeg) ![SmartSelect_20210328-140131_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/0/409b33dbb27b8610734cb934abfcb09a7b6d7170.jpeg) I use a MQTT Broker in Docker on my Synology NAS, which has the correct time and timezone (checked). Installed and switched to the Broker app on Homey for testing purposes, but that gives the same 2 hours (earlier) off. My Homey is on the correct time and timezone as well (checked). Not a big problem, but merely a bit confusing when testing / troubleshootingā€¦ Can anyone give me tips, or is this something that should be fixed in (one of?) the MQTT apps? ---

Both string & object output are supported. All values from the device state (capabilities) can be inserted in the payload. ---

Sorry for the complete noob question. iā€™ve just got Home Assistamnt installed on a Synology NAS and got the MQTT hub/broker/client all connected and added to Home Assistant. I can see all the devices but canā€™t controll them or look at the values. what am I doing wrong? edit: got it working!! ---

No, issues. Everything is working just fine, as it always has. Another suggestion might be to change the default birth/will message thatthe app is listening to to the same as default in Home assistant? Now the default in Homey is hass/status and homeassistant/status in HA. Might cause unnecessary trouble for people restarting HA.
