Ditto, it appears to roll it back.

In most cases, there should be a screw hole in the back of the box, you can pick up a bag of green grounding screws to give a positive connection to the conduit system.

Couldn't that just be accomplished by poking a firewall hole? I do understand wanting to have PG3x on an IoT VLAN in order for some functionality to work at all because of broadcast domain issues, though I solved that by using my old Polisy as a PG3x head-end in that VLAN, and an above mentioned firewall hole, but you can already slice up the internal NIC to two virtual NICs, so doing VLAN magic seems pretty trivial after that.

One thing about Wi-Fi is it's not like Z-Wave or Insteon or Zigbee. While the above three provide the full stack of OSI layer 1-7. Wi-Fi is only OSI layers 1-2, basic connectivity only. It still needs TCP/IP to handle layers 3 and 4, as well as the rest of the application stack (5-7) to make it useful. Protocols like Matter look to fill that gap with something that's standards complaint for home automation devices, but right now on Wi-Fi, or TCP/IP generally, it's individual per vendor, requiring the use of a Polyglot plugin as @dbwarner5 describes. To complicate matters further, many devices using Wi-Fi for their connectivity only communicate to a cloud server, and do not permit you, on your local LAN, to access the device directly. Others lock down the communication to only their smartphone app via cryptography, and still others allow you to access it locally without issue. And one thing to keep in mind as you add Wi-Fi devices, is that they have a hidden node problem that leads to your network slowing down as you add more devices, with each associated device taking about 1% of your total Wi-Fi bandwidth even when it's doing nothing - and even with multiple APs to mitigate this, there are still only three clear Wi-Fi channels in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, leading to a practical maximum of about 300 devices connected in a standard home with normal business-grade equipment (note: this can be overcome, but as with most problems it's solved by throwing money at it). Unless your Wi-Fi network is already significantly overbuilt, you'll need to budget for a large expansion.

No, but the Home Assistant minimums assume you're running, "On the Iron," so it's loading up a bunch of drivers - virtualized, its memory needs are more modest.

Update: there was a connectivity issue where a firewall rule was eating ICMP packets - put an allow rule in and things started working, thanks for putting me on the right track!

Yes, they all are - i3, s9, and four m6's.

Discovery on initial startup isn't working, and I've tested on both an eisy and a polisy, both with PG3x, seeing the same log entries.

No, your Eisy came with a thermal pad to use the external case as a heatsink.

So is mine, I used sudo

sudo vm poweroff -f homeassistant And then backup everything in /storage, and you should be able to boot from the NVME and put everything back. Edit: doesn't seem the case, but this is BSD, I'm sure there's a method of doing it, you just may be restricted in storage space for the backup.

I actually already have a headless Celeron based Nuc for that already. It's also a jump box for all sorts of network management, and it is indeed very handy. I'm not sure if a VNC connection would be nearly as effective as RDP though, if I could even get it running on Polisy.

What OS are you on? On Windows, I've always gotten this nice big + sign:

@theitprofessor Just because they have field upgradeable firmware doesn't mean it will be frequent, or that it exists at all right now. in Z-Wave land, a few devices get a few firmware updates, but it's still fairly rare except for right after new chipset releases. Given the new company direction, if there were any updates I think we'd have heard of them by now in their periodic updates - and if they do occur, I hope UD has the time to add in that capability as well. If it does require a hub and it's an important update, I'll probably pick one up, join the devices to it for a firmware update, then just hit restore device in the AC once the firmware update is done.
