Writing with an issue that suddenly appeared after an office layout change. I rearranged the office and added a small server rack. All the smart home hubs reside i. The rack including the C8 pro. The C8 is connected via ethernet to the same switch as before the rearrange. In the server rack is the C8, Home assistant (raspberry pi5), philips hue hub, the 8 port switch, an eero and the Verizon internet modem.
After i finished connecting all the smart home devices i began testing various smart switches and motion sensors for the lights in the house. The list of devices is extensive but 95% of the 73 active devices are Zigbee and either connect directly to the hubitat or are imported from Philips.
Devices fail to respond to motion, button presses or door relay open/close actions. For clarity the door sensors are aquara, smart buttons range from sonoff to Thirdreality and a single Ikea button. The devices control lights or smart switches using hubitat Rules/Automations. Something to mention, the interface on the app decently changes but i dont know of that is relevant. For troubleshooting ive done a Reboot of the hubitat, a power cycle, a relocate out of the server rack and an update.
Extensive troubleshooting: I rebuilt the zigbee mesh from within hubitat, changes the zigbee channel and adjusted the power output. I've re-paired several of the sensors, switches and bulbs when quit working. This fixes the issue temporarily but it happens again. Additionally, there are times when i will walk in to one of the bathrooms and there will be a delay of 8-10 seconds before the light comes on triggered by a motion sensor.
A lot of info but Im stumped. When everything works, it smooth but this issue is so inconsistent I just cant figure out the cause.
