Constant Issues with ConBee

Configuration Zigbee
1

Folks, I really need some advice here. I was running my install from a pi but I kept getting these weird errors form my lights (shown in pic). Sometimes a wipe restore would work sometimes not. I moved to VMware and that solved the issue for a while, them it crept up again. I’m at my wits end.

What are you running in combination with the conbee? Deconz? ZHA? Zigbee2mqtt?

Deconz, the log fles are from that add-on.

What version of firmware is your Conbee running? It is impossible to upgrade the firmware of your conbee stick when Deconz is running in a HASS.io container, even though there is a button “upgrade firmware” visible in Deconz, the button does nothing.
Try upgrading your firmware of your conbee stick to the latest version by shutting down your RPi, pulling out the Conbee, and plugging it in a windows, mac or linux machine, and do the firmware upgrade that way.
Your network will stay in tact, think of the conbee stick like a wifi stick, there is no config on the stick itself, it is just a hardware device that gives zigbee capabilities to your operating system. All the config is on the machine it is plugged into.

I used to have many issues, and first thought it was due to buggy integration. Turns out, I was running a 4 year old firmware on my stick that lagged lots of bugfixes.
Since upgrading a few months ago, not a single device on my network became unreachable, and the network stayed in tact through several reboot of the RPi, things that would have definitely caused issues with the old firmware

It looked like I was using the most recent version but I upgraded again to be safe using the windows method . I used the conbee2 from: http://deconz.dresden-elektronik.de/deconz-firmware/

I then had to re-add all my lights which was a bummer but hopefully this fixes it. It works so good when its working which is what makes it so frustrating when it breaks. I thought the issue was sd card degradation on the PI but the same thing happening on VMware dispels that. I moved back to the PI for testing.

Ty for the feedback.

Still having these issues, even after ensuring firmware was current.
