I have finally got Home Assistant set up with a pretty simple configuration. I am just controlling 2 switches and turning them on/off based on if device(s) are home
. I am using Asuswrt for device tracking and it seems to be very fast to recognize when a device connects and marks it home
within seconds. But marking a device as not_home
seems to take around 3 minutes+. I have tried a config section for device_tracking using asuswrt as the platform so I could use interval_seconds
and consider_home
but the settings don’t seem to have any effect. Here is the section of YAML:
asuswrt:
host: xxx.xxx.x.x
username: *****
password: ****
device_tracker:
- platform: asuswrt
interval_seconds: 10
consider_home: 60
Is there any way to speed up detection of devices when they drop off the network? Most people seem to have pretty good results using Asuswrt from what I have read.
