Wont connect to homekit #1077

Closed cdrwinston closed 3 years ago

I am new and have a raspberry pi4. I have downloaded Hoobs to my card. I can access Hoobs through the website 192.168.x it won’t connect through .local. But I cannot get it to connect to HomeKit. It keeps saying that accessory not found. I’m on eero mesh. I’ve unplugged the other nodes to ensure I’m on the same network. No luck. I’ve restarted, reset and generated a new code with no luck. What else should I try?

restart your Eero mesh router for the device to be found by Homekit and make sure you connect the Pi4 to the main node. When mDNS is not available then use the IP address of the box to access the UI.

Mine ended up being on 2 different IP addresses. If yours are both hard wired then I don’t know what could be the issue.

I am an idiot. I've been testing the Unifi Dream Machine in my house on a different network and did not realize I wasn't on my main network. Switched to that and walla, device found.

Hahahaha. No you’re not. But I’m glad I could help.
