Thermostats will show current temperature but won't accept changes #456

Hi,

I just installed a new instance of homebridge with the current version of the homebridge plugin.

took a moment for the humidity values to show up, but after that both current temps and current humidity for HmIP-STHD, HmIP-STH and HmIP-eTRV-2 show up in the Home app. It will also show the currently set temperature. All STHD and STH work together with two FALMOT-C12 systems and a HmIP-HAP

I can't change the temps via home kit though. First I thought it was because of access controls for the different user, but after promoting the homebridge user to admin and disabling access control all together nothing changed.

When I change the temperature in the home app, it will shortly show as "set to XY" with the loading sign, then it'll go to "no response" and shortly after it comes back with the old value that was last set in the Homematic app.

I couldn't find anything related online. I am happy to help if you need any more information

Found the answer, or rather the workaround.

It seems it is caused by homebridge running on wifi and having dns issues with the homematic url which results in a timeout error and causes homebridge to restart.

I can connect the homebridge via LAN which solves the issue.

issues seems therefore related to homebridge itself and not homematic ip.
