[Feature] Automatic reconnect to router not working

[vulnersCom]

Hi mate! There are two point I've suggest as a feature. First one is kind obvious and maybe(?) my system just working wrong. Hass is missing routerboard after reboot. And to get back system I need to reboot Home Assistant. Maybe it's possible to add auto-reconnection feature?

Second one is about functionality. There is LtAP version of RouterBoard with integrated GPS module. Here is API samples: https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:GPS-tracking It's will be very cool to track the position of the vehicle and write log of it in Hass.

reconnect is there from the start. I will have a look if it got broken.

Do you mean this? #196

Yep! Oh, completely missed that it's already done. But I can't see this entities in my integration.

It will be available in next release soon along with quite few new features.

reconnect is not yet fixed, so let's not close this yet ;)

Regarding GPS i think also we may use device_tracker and link it to the initial router device. For now to get object on the map I use:

- id: Bavaria GPS Tracker
  alias: Bavaria GPS Tracker
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: sensor.bavaria_36_longitude
  condition: []
  action:
  - service: device_tracker.see
    data_template:
      mac: "DC:2C:6E:60:BC:C2"
      dev_id: "2f2ac6b3f60ea25e13aefbe7d358d047"
      host_name: bavaria
      location_name: Rocky Raccoon
      gps:
        - "{{ states('sensor.bavaria_36_latitude')|float }}"
        - "{{ states('sensor.bavaria_36_longitude')|float }}"
      gps_accuracy: 10
      battery: "{{ states('sensor.bavaria_36_voltage')|float }}"
  mode: single

Problem with that is, that I dont own gps I could connect to a mikrotik and this is HA implementation I have no experience with. Doing something like this blindly is not really viable.
