Hello again :-)
Hello again :-)
Thanks again!
If Matter is working you should have working IPv6. But lets check. The settings should be visible in your HA settings menu. I only have a container install to hand. I have some network settings at the url /config/network
but because its not HAOS, I don't know if thats where the settings you need are. If its the right place you'll be able to set your ipv4 address to static or DHCP in the same place.
OK, in the Network section of Settings IPv6 has Automatic set
Ok thats the 2 biggest causes of Timeout's ruled out.
Thread relies on ICMPv6 Router Advertisements. If you didn't have automatic there, HAOS would ignore them and you wouldn't be able to route packets to the mesh.
Those RA's only work within a single VLAN, which is why I asked about those. It's quite common for advanced prosumer home networks to have the BR and HA on a different VLAN, and that doesn't work at all.
In the thread integration, where you can see your border router and thread network details, there should be a hamburger "..." menu. Under there you should be able to get a diagnostics JSON report. Grab that and attach it here.
Is your Nanoleaf light close to the BR? Is the Aqara closer? Are there any walls or ceilings in the way?
Is the Nanoleaf controller near any USB3 cables? Power? HDMI? etc.
I guess the nanoleaf is a reasonable distance from the BR but the aqara was in the same room and originally set-up there, until I moved it.
I have attached the json config_entry-thread-4be984c9817f1f6ac59630591905923a.json
There's no border routers visible at all in that dump. Can you try again, but make sure you are on the popup where you can see the border router, see the name of the border router, its logo, etc. There's a race condition if you do it from the other place.
The timeout is 16s. It shouldn't take 16s for a packet to exit HA, go to the router, go to the BR, go to the device, and then come back. For a powered device, it should be sub second.
HomeKit over Thread is UDP based. Matter is either TCP or UDP with a custom "Message Reliability Protocol" on top. So if the signal is barely reaching that part of your home, Matter may just be better than HomeKit at pairing. Could you move the Nest or the light strip to rule it out? If you do, restart HA after moving them just in case the IPv6 prefix changes or anything that might distrupt the test.
The other thing I want to know is if the discovery is still there if you restart HA? Does it come back almost immediately?
In the Thread Integration page, I click on Configure and the next page shows NEST-PAN-4AD3.
If I click the "i", it pops up the following:
Network name: NEST-PAN-4AD3 Channel: 12 Dataset id: 01HG0RZHEZ7WAZK4A6NHFNJVV8 Pan id: 4ad3 Extended Pan id: b99fb654c6953656
Below, there is an entry with the Google logo showing my Google Nest Hub Max,
If I click the ... next to this it simply pops up with "Used for Android and iOS credentials", which is greyed out. There are no other options on the menu.
I will move the Nest Hub Max and try again, although that might need to be a bit later.
I just tried restarting Home Assistant to see if the discovery found the device again but it didn't appear to automatically show up.
Thanks again for your assistance/time on this, much appreciated.
So the discoveries don't currently time out. So if the device only has intermittent thread connectivity, or it has decided to switch thread off and go back to bluetooth, you might catch an old stale discovery. Restarting and it not coming back is consistent with this sort of thing. Hopefully moving the nest closer will sort things out, in which case you'll need more router capable Thread devices or more BRs.
So, I restarted HA with the Nest Hub Max literally a couple of feet away from the light. It didn't automatically find the light.
I therefore deleted it from nanoleaf and then factory reset the light itself. I then added the light back into nanoleaf.
I went back to HA and it discovered the light. I pressed configure and it prompted for code, which I entered. It then asked me for where the light was located and added it fine.
I now have a new HomeKit controller integration with the device on it.
I guess it was the distance of the Google Nest Hub and will need to put it back in it's original location to see if it continues working.
Many thanks for your help, much appreciated. I should have probably recognised distance might have been an issue myself but you live and learn huh!
Final point, now seems to be working fine even when I return the Google Nest Hub back to it's original location, thanks once more @Jc2k!
The initial setup is likely one of the heavier exchanges it will do so not too surprised.
If you have any more problems with it - adding more mains powered routers or BRs should help.
I'd strongly suggest asking on our discord if you go down that route, not all vendors products make great routers.. some are very crashy.
Hi @Jc2k, sorry to bother you again. This had been working perfectly for the last 3 weeks without any problems. A couple of days back it seems to have stopped working. It may have coincided with a Home Assistant update but I cannot be sure.
Anyway, so I went back to the beginning and removed the light from nanoleaf, moved the google nest hub closer, reset the light and went through the set-up procedure again. It got to the point in Home Assistant where it asks for the code and I enter this but now receive the error "This accessory is already paired to another device. Please reset the accessory and try again".
I have reset the device numerous times now and gone through the above in a variety of different ways e.g., after restarting HA, removing things in different orders. However, I simply can't get past this error. Do you have any idea how to get past this one?
FYI, I have pasted some log entries (3 of them) that occur at the time this happens in case that provides any help.

The problem
So, I am not sure whether what I am trying to do is wrong or not so apologies in advance if I am being stupid. I used the link from the system log entry to get here.
I have bought the following light which comes with my desk, which is effectively a nanoleaf https://secretlab.co.uk/products/magrgb-diffused-rgb-strip-smart-edition
I installed the nanoleaf app and added the light. During this process it connected to my thread border router, which is a Google Nest Hub. Everything seems to work fine.
I went into Home Assistant and received the notification that a new decive had been discovered and it identifies the light as a HomeKit Device.
In settings, I attempt to configure this device but it returns with the error that it cannot be configured and asks to enter a code. I try the code on the device but receive the same error "Pairing attempt failed with an unhandled exception"
I have copied the corresponding entry from the system log
My setup is
I am pretty sure I might be doing something dumb so any advice really welcome, thanks!
