Xiaomi Gateway - strange IP address in Domoticz
Posted: Tuesday 03 December 2019 21:20
This is really strange!
I have just received a ”Mi Smart Sensor Set” and installed the Gateway on my network. According to the “Mi APP” on my phone the Gateway was, via WiFi, assigned to IP address 172.24.1.163.
So I went to Domoticz, select Hardware in the menu and added, the Xiaomi Gateway, portnumber 9898:
26 Xiaomi Gateway Ja Xiaomi Gateway 172.24.1.163 9898 Deaktiveret
Then I looked into Domoticz logfile and found:
2019-12-03 21:06:09.918 Status: XiaomiGateway (ID=26): Delaying worker startup...
2019-12-03 21:06:14.919 Status: XiaomiGateway (ID=26): Selected as main Gateway
2019-12-03 21:06:14.919 Status: XiaomiGateway (ID=26): Worker started...
2019-12-03 21:06:14.919 Status: XiaomiGateway (ID=26): Using 172.24.1.137 for local IP address.
Strange …… why does Domoticz select “172.24.1.137”, I then tried to change my IP address under Hardware steup, but always Domoticz select “172.24.1.137” – as if this address was hard encoded in the software. I do of cause not get any data in Domoticz from the Gateway, also if I allow a 5 minutes sample period.
My Xiaomi Gateway is version DGNWG05LM.
My Domoticz is version 4.11528
Please help
