ER605 does not show TX & RX activity

[mogim0gi]

Hei,

My request is for ER605 to be able to show TX/RX activity. WAN activity in mb/s would be even better, here is how I see it right now

I am having the same Issue, Hope it gets fixed

Same here. How can we support?

ER605 v1 and a SG2016P v1.20 switch - same issue, does not show Rx or Tx activity

I figured out a way to create a MB/s upload/download bandwidth sensor using derivatives since the Uploaded and Downloaded sensors update every 30 seconds:

- platform: derivative
  # Calculate the throughput by sampling the Downloaded sensor
  name: "Network - WAN Down Throughput - Mbps"
  source: sensor.omada_router_downloaded
  unit_time: s
  round: 2

- platform: derivative
  # Calculate the throughput by sampling the Uploaded sensor
  name: "Network - WAN Up Throughput - Mbps"
  source: sensor.omada_router_uploaded
  unit_time: s
  round: 2

Thanks for that idea!

But you won't get Mbps (Mbit/s), but MB/s (MByte/s) with this configuration, as the Download and Upload sensors are in MB. So you need to mulitplicate the value with 8 to convert it into bit.

Can confirm, version 0.5.0

This may be a limitation of the ER604 V1, i know the V1's have gotten less love from TP Link in the past. Can't say for sure though.

Still beats the pants off the native integration, though.

Same issue on ER605 v2, with latest firmware:

Same issue on SG2008P v3.20 with latest firmware:

Would love to see this fixed. Besides that, great integration as the native one doesn't provide a lot of useful sensors.

hi all, I've created a PR to fix the gateway rx_rate and tx_rate values. (of default WAN port!) It seems to work for me, but would be great that some people could test it as well. Tested on my ER605 v2.

Please also tell me if you like to have more precision on the rouding of the values (examples shows 3 decimal digits, while the PR is created with only 2 decimal digits)
