3 months ago One more observation: I have a suspicion regarding the dynamic IP aspect of EC2. For debugging purposes, I assigned a static IP yesterday, but the same issue persists. Today, I attempted to resolve the timeout issue through firewall commands, removing connector devices, and deleting images, but none of these efforts resolved it.
Interestingly, even with the static IP assigned, the problem persisted. However, I noticed that creating a new IoT gateway device and using its access token in the Docker Compose file resolves the issue temporarily. Despite this temporary workaround, the problem remains unresolved.

But it's not feasible to daily create New IoT Gateway Device. Could you please advise on a more permanent solution to this issue? Your guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've been attempting to establish a connection between Thingsboard IoT Gateway and Thingsboard CE/Thingsboard Edge. Initially, I tried using the MQTT demo connector method, which worked well. However, after dynamic IP changes occur, the connection fails, resulting in a "timed out" error, even after updating the IP address in the Docker Compose file same in both connectivity of IoT Gateway either with Thingsboard CE or Thingsboard Edge.
Let me share details about the issue below:
1) Here's the setup I've implemented:
2) Due to AWS's dynamic IP setup, the IP address changes daily. Initially, during the first setup, my IoT gateway device Docker Compose file looked like the following, and it successfully communicated with Thingsboard Server / Thingsboard Edge:
Docker-Compose.yml for gateway
3) However, the very next day, the IP changed, so I manually updated the IP in my Docker Compose file accordingly.
Error Encountered:
The IoT gateway encountered the following error after updating the IP in docker compose file and run sudo docker-compose up:

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:
1) Attempted to resolve the issue by disabling ufw using sudo ufw disable #1303 , as suggested in another ticket, but it didn't work. 2) Tried removing the docker image and other troubleshooting methods but none were successful. 3) Noticed that creating a new gateway device or deleting connector devices sometimes resolves the issue, but this is inconsistent and not a reliable solution.
Request for Assistance:
I need assistance in resolving this issue permanently as the current workaround is not reliable. Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
