Asuswrt config not working 0.83.1

Installation Home Assistant OS
81

Hi There,

I have been experimenting with presence detection using my Asus router. I have HA successfully detecting the devices I have connected to my network including my Galaxy S2 tablet. For some reason it will not see my Galaxy S9+ phone even though I have confirmed it is showing up in my router.

Any ideas how I can rectify this? I have the following in my config.yaml:

asuswrt:
host: 192.168.1.1
username: “My Username”
password: “My Password”
sensors:
- upload
- download
- upload_speed
- download_speed

device_tracker:

  • platform: asuswrt
    interval_seconds: 30
    consider_home: 600
82

I figured it out,

I looked in the known_devices.yaml and my phone was listed but track was set to false. I set it to “true” and restarted HA and it was then available

I also have tried a simple automation to turn on my office lights when I get home and turn them off when I leave. It works beautifully. I am a real HA newbie but I tell you it’s addictive lol

What can I learn next … :slight_smile:

For those still looking for info on this.
The variables still work. For my router I was using telnet, so I had to define the protocol AND port number.

asuswrt:
host: REDACTED
username: REDACTED
password: REDACTED
protocol: telnet
port: 23

Done!
