Hi everyone,

I Once knew this but I seem to have forgotten it.

When i connect to my homey directly via IP-adres I get I log-in screen. My main Homey-administrator account does not work.

Hw Do I get in there? I wanna be master of my network I hate it when things are hidden from me… 😉

UPDATE:

Thx community. I was doing some maintainance work on my network when I stumbled upon this login screen. I did not link it to the mails I’ve received this week (and havn’t had time to read) from homey…

Now I know… thx

Search the forum, you’re not the only one.

It seems like you mix up some things;  
The local user feature is just very recently introduced @ firmware v12.8.0

It’s also explained in the promotion mail just 1 day ago😉

You probably knew how to login at my.homey.app

Login via the internal ip-adress, is only possible since about 3 days.
