Hello everyone. I have the following problem. Add to my hubitat 5 Sonoff Zigbee ZBMINI with neutral, therefore they work as a router.
I have the 5 glued to each other since they are inside a lighter strip.
I have a routine with a button that when I click on it, it turns on those 5 lights. The problem is that when the routine is executed, a light remains without turning on, but if I click directly on the dashboard, it turns on immediately.
I have the routing table of the devices and I see that one is connected to the same one.
Any ideas on this or open a routine option that activates the devices sequentially.
Greetings,

From a quick glance it doesn't look like you have enough repeating devices in your neighbors table with low enough in and out costs to create an effective mesh. I would consider adding additional mains-powered devices and make sure you read the following:
You might also try spacing out the commands to turn the lights on. Sometimes a zigbee network can get overloaded if you try to send too many zigbee commands in a short time. If you're using a scene to activate the lights try turning on metering.
Since these are Zigbee devices, you may want to try the "Enable Zigbee Group Messaging" feature of a Hubitat Group. I would try turning off "Metering" and turning on the "Group Messaging" feature to see if that also resolves the issue. The advantage of Zigbee Group messaging is that only 1 Zigbee command is sent out, and all devices that are part of the group will receive it and turn on/off at the same time. It usually works very well!
The "Metering" feature was added primarily to help with commanding a large number of Z-Wave devices. There is no "Group Messaging" feature for the Z-Wave devices, so metering really helps out.
