Reconnect to Gateway every day #56

Open Jbb08 opened 4 years ago

Jbb08 commented 4 years ago

Not sure if this is at all related to the way this plugin gets access to our Tradfri devices and exposes them to HomeKit. But all of a sudden (past week) I’m getting logged out of the Gateway from my app due to a security precaution. I wonder if it’s because this plugin is interfering at all? Odd I know, but Ikea want me to delete app and reset everything, which will cause major destruction of Ikea app, Home app and Alexa setup! Is there a way I can narrow out this plugin causing this issue?

I'm seeing the same thing :(

I am sorry, but the IKEA Gateway has a lot of flaws, and also the software. Personally, I abandoned the gateway and got a Athom Homey. This hub/gateway has support for 433 MHz, Z-Wave, Zigbee, BT and more. With the Homey I don't need a hub for Philips Hue, IKEA or any other manufacturer.

I will mark this project as obsolete.

It also has a nice plugin with Google Home so you may control your devices with your voice. Wish Siri was as smart...

@meg768 Since it is now obsolete, what plugin would you recommend to control IKEA Blinds?
