Can you post your Homebridge config?

you should also consider moving to https://github.com/iRayanKhan/homebridge-roomba2

Sure! I run Homebridge in docker on Synology DS218+, I have also already tried another Docker host. I can get the robots root pw from inside the container and it also pings pretty well. With Hoobs in Docker, I get the same issues. Maybe it's docker related?! For Synology I followed this guide: https://github.com/oznu/homebridge-syno-spk

I also already checked roomba2, I tried nearly every roomba plugin, no luck.

Docker Image: https://registry.hub.docker.com/r/oznu/homebridge/

{
    "bridge": {
        "name": "Homebridge 55E9",
        "username": "0E:52:1F:4A:55:E9",
        "port": 53923,
        "pin": "xxx-45-xxx"
    },
    "accessories": [
        {
            "name": "Robert",
            "model": "976",

            "robotpwd": ":x:xxxx:xxx",
            "ipaddress": "192.168.1xx.1xx",
            "autoRefreshEnabled": true,
            "keepAliveEnabled": true,
            "cacheTTL": 30,
            "accessory": "Roomba"
        }
    ],
    "platforms": [
        {
            "name": "Config",
            "port": 8581,
            "platform": "config"
        }
    ]
}

Config looks good. I think this really is a docker problem.

[okleinschmidt]

Thanks. I'll try again in a virtual machine. I'll keep you updated.

Mh. Same results with latest Hoobs installed in a ubuntu 20.04 VM on Proxmox, network of hoobs and roomba is the same, no firewall or any other paket filtering. strange...

Do I have the robots home button every time I setup a plugin, or just when I get the rootpw? Does the rootpw change at any time?

[solbadguy2010]

Don‘t use Hoobs. And you should switch to https://github.com/iRayanKhan/homebridge-roomba2. Its based ob this plugin, but the developer is responding to issues. You should create an issue there.
