I know this topic is for Homey Pro (im shs) but it might still be useful because like me people will find this topic when looking for help.

Not to drive you away from homey and to Home Assistant but the Thread tool on that helped me see the networks and mamage them. I found i had multiple. I found one was totally locked but others could join it.

Make one “thread mesh”

If like me Its confusing, i used google And chat gpt and its been solid since - for the first time ever.

Are you in Homey or SHS?

The homey app (for pro) will show you your preferred network. I believe Aqara can be made to mirror/extend an existing thread network. But you WILL have to delete all devices on the aqara hub to do it. Its not a short process but its worth it
