so if i’ll change my skyconnect key i’ll have to reconnect all the zigbee devices?
i learnt something new also today, thanks :slight_smile:

No that’s nothing to do with what I’m talking about.

The problem is the route stored on the device.

Depending on if you are using ZHA or Z2M you may not have to re-pair e.g.

https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/faq/#what-does-and-does-not-require-re-pairing-of-all-devices

Switching between adapters requires re-pairing, except when:

  • When the serial.adapter in the configuration.yaml is zstack or ember and the serial.adapter stays the same; e.g. zstack → zstack re-pairing is not required.
23

so basically it’s a multi-hop use case where one of the hops becomes unavailable and does not come back online?
well not that common, is it?

24

Again. No. Only the first hop from the device. The routers it joins to should be capable of re-routing. Only it can’t.

EDIT: Here, perhaps this explains it better, read from top to bottom:

Is it possible that the latest Aqara sensors aren’t available on AliExpress? I tried searching for the MS-S02 (P1), but nothing, only older models.

26

Indeed. I’ve been searching for the aqara fp1e, only found the fp1

I haven’t found any T1 or newer devices on AE, either.
