Hi today I’ve got my new Aqara Hub M1S Gen 2. It is a replacement for my old Aqara Hub 1st version.
It was pretty easy to integrate,
- Removed old Hub from Aqara app
- Plugged new hub in the socket to wait for bootup
- Add to Aqara app
- Readd all 100 things with names and rooms…
- Restart home Assistant - wait till done
(So far not recognized by HA, after 45 min in the network) - Unplug hub wait 10 seconds and replug to power
- HA shows the hub as Home kit controller
- Add to HA with the provided code (on hub or box)
Everything works fine…, Oh I forget to say region is for me Europe in Aqara app.
It looks like that the hub only after bootup provides the info that it is a homekit controller.
Version Details:
Home Assistant 2022.11.2
Supervisor 2022.10.2
Aqara Hub: 3.4.6_0007.0004
Would be nice if someone else could review this process to confirm it works. I only found this funny description where you have to use the Xiaomi app and the Chinese server, click a version number x times, reset the hub and whatever else is described here.
This could result in a better description for the integration and troubleshooting section.
Kind regards
