Deconz and Ikea repeater

Third party integrations
1

Hi,

I’ve read a lot of thread about the subject but I admit to don’t understand what to do. So I’m goint to start this…so… sorry to bother you…

This is my problem:

I bought an Ikea repeater (see: ikea repeater ) because I need to enlarge my zegbee network. I mainly control xiomi aqara sensor and ikea bulbs via Hassio working on docker and installed on Raspbian stretch via Dale3H script.

As reported elsewhere (see here: https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/issues/1258#issuecomment-464484232 and here https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/issues/1258#issuecomment-496877720, here https://github.com/dresden-elektronik/deconz-rest-plugin/issues/1095 and so on…)
this repeater is working with Home Assistant. But there is something I cannot understand (because I’m really a noob at this…): I tryed several times to pair this tool on Phoscom and on Open Wireless Light Control (2016) but I had no luck!

I read about “vnc access” or other other Deconz software but I can’t find anything like that on the addons configuration page od docs.

Is there any chance to pair this device via deconz addon or I need another installation of piece of software? :worried:

Thanks for your attention! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey. Don’t know if you where able to solve the problem already. I just switched to the Conbee 2 with Deconz and was able to add the IKEA repeater as a light. Just searched for a new light in the phoscon app and pressed the pair button on the IKEA repeater. After a few seconds it appeared as a light.

Dito, like Gummientchen wrote. It works perfect.

Hi,
Has anyone tried to pair more than 1 of these signal repeaters to their deconz network? I added a second one a few days ago & now the original one suddently goes offline but it never lost power.
Cheers
