Feature Request: Add Safari Note #27

Closed rdeutsch3 closed 9 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

I couldn't get the proxy certificate to download using my Synology Diskstation configuration. Then when I switched to a standalone homebridge server to obtain the refresh token, I couldn't get the certificate to install in iOS using Firefox.

Describe the solution you'd like:

Please update the installation/configuration page with the following: Note: The Xfinity plug-in cannot be configured on Synology Diskstation Homebridge. Please use standalone Homebridge or HOOBs and transfer the configuration after the refresh key is obtained. Rationale: the proxy certificate never loads on my Diskstation configuration, it just stalls forever at loading. Something happened with a power outage and the plugin lost contact with XFinity. Try as I might I couldn't get the proxy to load to refresh the token. Temporarily installed on my standalone Homebridge server and viola! Certificate loaded and I then had a vague memory about using Safari last time (see below).

Add a Note something like the following: -Ensure the default iOS browser is set to Safari, for the proxy certificate to be installed into the iOS Settings.

Rationale: Only Safari worked for me. Firefox just kept downloading the certificate, but not allowing me to do anything with it.

Describe alternatives you've considered:

I tried using other browsers but only Safari would work to get the refresh token.
