MAC address #151

Closed dennyreiter closed 6 years ago

I think I might be closer to fixing my problem. In the device where it asks for your mac address, what is that used for, a unique ID? I noticed grailExceptions in the ST livelogging about a unique ID, and I'm also using the Google Assistant relay on the same box, and it also used the mac address. Can I use a different ID, instead so they don't conflict?

The SmartThings hub won't accept connections from your HA device unless the mac address of the request matches the mac address you configure for the MQTT Device.

Well that is an issue, though I think I figured that out earlier. I also run Google Assistant Relay, which requires the mac address for SSDP to work, so they appear to conflict.
