How can we help?

Hi, I've about 30 devices on flow, but only 3 are recognized (it asked me for the number of hub and I?ve inserted the default 11111111), they have names which aren't really contained on nodes, but they are present on Virtual Smart Home (Amazon-Echo), there I also have about 30 devices (recognized) I don't now if there are conflicts on announcements, what I know is that on bridge setup I haven't chosen the advertizer (was blank), clicking on it I can choose between Bonjour and "CIAO", I don't know what is this CIAO and where it comes from, I hope not from a previous/old version of homebridge. This is an italian word as I am too, but I don't have memory I?ve used such name, strange.

Anyway tomorrow I'll try selecting Bonjour, do you know if there may be any other issue? Should I compile all paramenters of the module? Serial number, manifacturer, or should the manifacturer specified on hub be the same of the one on devices, may anything like that affect the recognition? Thank you a lot!

Any more details?

If this is specific to some hardware or specific software version, please explain here.

Any code or functions to add?

I've removed devices on Homekit and tried with Bonjour, no devices could be detected. Then I've decided to build a new hub with new PIN, and with that worked. I had to change manually all hub dependency to all devices. I don't know what went wrong with previous one, it was made with version 1 and was working. Anyway, ok
