Good morning,
I have the strange error, when trying to controll my devices, connected to the Hubitat, that my GA is telling me, that it can't reach HE. It usually takes a few a minute or two, then everything is working again. Rules I've set up always work as expected (incl. TTS). Also using directly the dashboard all devices react as expected. Can anyone help? I got the C7-Hub, 2 Nest Mini, 2 Nest Hub, 3 Ikea bulbs (two ab the original Ikea-Hub) and a Broadlink RM4, running locally using the community-driver.
I assume you've created a virtual device on HE and exposed that to google?
I've seen similar reports when the hub doesn't have a static IP and GA has to find the hub first.

Most but not all. My Ikea bulb ist a Generic Zigbee Bulb.

OK, I'm going to check that.
What I've noticed also, is that during the day, everything seems to work fine. It is mainly in the evening and early morning for some reason, when the family ist home...
I also ordered a better router. Let's see if this helps, too.
Nope, still disconnecting even after a static IP on the Hubitat...
Update if someone might have the same problems:
Static IP + a decent router did the trick. Now everything runs smooth.
Especially for people in Germany: I've had the Speedport Smart 3 from Telekom. This router is constantly overwhelmed when you run more then 3 WiFi-devices (in my case 2 Laptops, 3 mobile phones, 4 Nest-devices and 1 Broadlink). It will constantly lose the connection, especially during the evening, when the WiFi-network is used more frequently and setting static IPs in the Speedport menu doesn't work at all.... I've switched now to the FritzBox 7590. Everything worked directly and faster.
