Very thorough explanation!
I'll add a basic info for @TheTwelveYearOld@lemmy.world: every service MUST have a different password (password manager almost mandatory with a VERY strong password and 2FA).
If you're paranoid like me ( 🙈 ) use a different email alias for each service (SimpleLogin)
When I've signed up was the cheaper.
I've just checked and it's $6.99/TB/month and Backblaze B2 is actually cheaper ($6/TB/month).
Are there other differences that you know of? There must be since everyone is using Baclblaze.
O have some of Aqara windows/doors sensors and I've never had any problem.
I haven't changed any battery yet and I've installed about 2 yeas ago (or was it 3? 🤔)
The Aqara buttons are very good as well as the motion sensors (even though I've just installed a couples at my sister's and they disappear about a day after I pair them 🤷🏼♂️)
Hi,
yes, I have a Mosquitto container in another machine.
HA can connect to the MQTT broker and I already have other MQTT devices working in HA, there's also a Shelly RGBW2 that I can turn on and off via MQTT
In the MQTT broker I see plenty of data from all the MQTT devices
I thought that HA would recognize Shelly devices by their messages. I'll give a look at the MQTT discovery, thanks.
I've mentioned ColoT because I've installed the Shelly integration from HASS (sorry, I've forgot to mention it, I'll add it), but even there there are no devices discovered. I'm using it with mcast, I'll try putting the HA IP.
Thanks for the input, I'll do some tests.
It's a tagged network.
The VLANs are setup in the OPNsense router and since HA is a VM, the VLAN is taken care by Proxmox that presents an untagged NIC to the VM.
is multicast DNS enabled and available in that VLAN?
In OPNsense there is no multicast DNS option to be enabled, but since the Shelly devices and HA are in the same VLAN, the router shouldn't even come into play.
have you set up the network for HA using the
ha network
commands?
No, I didn't, but in the HA in the "Configure network interfaces" section I see the 2 NICs with the 2 correct IPs.
Should I do something else?
Ops. However a small TL;DR would be useful instead of just copying/pasting links.
