It seems like it is not wifi. Can not XiaoMi Zigbee devices communicate periodically?

I experience the same problem with my door sensors. After a while (a few hours) one of them disappears from HomeBridge, including it's customised sensor name and removing all automations. When the door is opened the sensor will be available again in HomeBridge but with the default name (like "f2a1").

Hi @Brklnbnc i switched to domoticz and homebridge, there you can add all aqara switches and devices (beta). It works great since two weeks without any problem. You can even hide items and connect a aqara wireless wall switch with a hue light etc. A little bit of coding but if you get the idea it real great and comfortable. Including a nice web interface!

Hi @theo-69, thanks for your response. I'm already using Domoticz but wasn't exposing the Aqara sensors to HomeKit via homebridge-eDomoticz. Thanks to your tip I've exposed the sensors, and they indeed seem to work fine!
