I am using an old laptop to run HAOS. I have a sonoff zigbee 3.0 usb dongle plugged into a usb extension cord and it is set up with ZHA. I am able to get my aqara motion sensors connected but after that they drop motion detected and do not change state even when I wave my hand in front of it.
I have ikea switches connected through ZHA to the dongle and they have no issues working. What are some potential things I can try to trouble shoot the motion sensors not working?
I have tried waiting a day before testing again and it still won’t pick up motion. The luminosity and temperature also don’t change. After a while it will switch to unavailable. I’m completely lost on this one. I have 2 of them experiencing this issue
Ok, when i was talking about a long time before detecting motion again, I was thinking more of 60 seconds… not a whole day!
Your LQI score looks healthy at 180, so its not likely a weak signal.
However, your log only shows 1 device, so I’m guessing the other one dropped off already.
Are you updated to version 2023.5.3 as 5.0-5.2 had some stability issues with certain coordinators and ZHA. If you are on an affected version I’d highly suggest you upgrade as 5.0-5.2 intermittently knocked all of my aqara devices offline .
