NOTE: Although many users have had great success using them, Xiaomi / Aqara ZigBee devices are NOT officially supported or guaranteed to work on the Hubitat Elevation platform. Because of their small size, simple design, and relatively low price, the Chinese home automation (HA) market ZigBee mesh n…

@lexoid I’m so glad someone else has found this. I had this happen on ST with the Ikea TRÅDFRI GU10s (have 10 of them). Back in the day I didn’t want this to happen, as the Xiaomi stayed connected without issue, but my bulbs were on a dumb switch, where family member kept turning them off. I’ve sinc…

[image] lexoid: I can report the following Zigbee Routers not working as Xiaomi parent devices ... But when joining through these devicese, xiaomi keeps connection Thanks for reporting on all of those repeating devices! I've added them to my opening post for this thread.

[image] Royski: Can I ask what your method was for their pairing? I’d really like them to use these as repeaters, but I’m not sure if I’m accomplishing this. @Royski I'm actually running on homeassistant, so my experience is not applicable. In homeassistant I've just modified the code to send…

Reportedly Osrams are terrible repeaters (and generally most bulbs are said to be quite bad at it). Probably shouldn’t waste your time there. Quite interesting that the Trådfri seem to work well (at least with Xiaomi devices).

Thanks for that. When the next one drops (just a matter of time). I’ll try pairing again but whilst as close to them as I can get. Whilst on ST they did stick like glue to the TRÅDFRI, hopefully I can get them doing this again.

[image] humac: So I have had my Xbee3 connected And all devices working for weeks but then I had a power outage and only a few rejoined automatically. All my non xiaomi sensors rejoined ok but I have about 1/3 of my xiaomi’s rejoin. Any ideas on ways to improve the rejoining process with out me…

I've noticed over the last couple of weeks that my original Xiaomi Contact Sensors are either going inactive or not reporting correctly. Is anyone else seeing strange things going on with these devices. I only have 3 of these and am happy to replace these with the Aqara version if they are more reli…

I always had issues with the original Xiaomi temperature sensors on HE. Originally they connected fine but after a couple days there would be no status updates. Recently i reset them and tried to re-pair but now they won't even pair correctly. When I was on ST I had them working for years without i…

Today I finally migrated from ST to HE. I have a ton of Xiaomi sensors which is why I was originally developing the ST DHs. We will see how they perform on HE...

@humac, I am building my own sensor/modules. I and a few member has tested the module to route Xiaomi sensors since the module is a Zigbee router as well. The latest iteration come with battery backup feature to help the case when the main power is down.
