Older Dash Buttons #99

Closed audiether closed 1 year ago

audiether commented 4 years ago

I have a bunch of really old Dash buttons (Rev 01). Some of them still have working batteries, apparently (white light comes on before blue LED setup light.

Firmware: v0.9.168

I followed the process to connect to the AP and used the URL http://192.168.0.1/?amzn_ssid=&amzn_pw= (replacing correct values).

One some of the buttons a red light comes on. On others the light just goes off.

However, when I try to press the button, the white light flashes then a red light comes on.

I have blocked Internet access at the router for the MAC address.

Does anyone have any ideas on getting these to work?

did you ever figure this out by chance? I'm having an issue with mine as well

Sorry, I gave up. Turns out all of my devices had dead batteries and the batteries were soldered on the unit. Tried to replace one, then gave up.

I replaced all my automations with the Shortcuts App on my iPhone. Instead of pressing buttons to get a script to do something, I now tell Siri to do it. Actually like it even better because I do not need the button anywhere near me.

Good luck!
