Both showing data, the Asuswrt component shows download/upload sensor, not updating.
The device tracker added a lot of devices into known_devices.yaml, found my phone (iPhone) Mac dress in the file and added the sensor to my dashboard. It shows as “at home” but never updating. No matter how long the wifi connection is lost (while testing or away) the status is never updating.
I know there are some problems with the component but what I saw is the connection is not working often, but connection works, devices are found only status is not updating.
Is there still a problem with that component or maybe a fix available?
I see I thought all wireless router is AP mode by default but that’s not the case as mine was set to Router mode. I also didn’t put anything for router mode.
I only define asuswrt section and home/not_home works correctly for us.
Mine does not work too. Some devices, like this Broadlink RM PRO, that are constantly connected and no problems with disconnects (shown on Asus UI) keeps showing as away:
Hope they fix that soon…
Using an RT-AC68U flashed with Merlin operating as router.
But is it correct that I needed to add device_tracker config to see the asuswrt devices or should that come automatically with asuswrt component added?
All you need is the asuswrt component. The asuswrt component automatically enables the asuswrt device_tracker component. You don’t need the config for the device_tracker…unless you want to have some configuration value different from the default value.
Here is my asuswrt configuration in configuration.yaml:
