Hey @RKsHAss,
at the level on which you described your issue it’s not easy to help you resolve the issue.

As a ZBBridge user myself, I can tell you that it works flawlessly (Edit: in the small setup I utilize it in. Generally I’d also recommend a wired device for a bigger setup, as @Hedda said). Not sure how accurate your article is but I’d suggest to follow the main article at Sonoff Zigbee Bridge (ZBBridge) Zigbee compatibility to prepare your device with the latest Tasmota firmware, then configure it in Home Assistant using the instructions for “ZHA” at the bottom of the article.

Note! Because it uses WiFi it is not recommended to use Sonoff ZBBridge with ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT:

After several reboots and at least pull the power and restart again it works

What do you mean by “not using Wifi”? You can not use ITead’s ZBBridge Zigbee Bridge without Wi-Fi.

Regardless, no one will be able to help you more unless you actively volunteer way better descriptions.

PS: The brand is named “Sonoff”, not “Sonos” which is a brand for completely different type of devices.

Sonos doesn’t make a product called Zbbridge. It’s Sonoff (Itead, to be specific). Please take a moment to correct your posts. Otherwise, when users search for topics related to Sonoff Zbbridge, your topic might not appear in the search results.
