Does anyone have experience configuring the Eurpoean Wiser hub from Schneider? I have installed Drayton Wiser Integration for Home Assistant through HACS and I’m all good to go . I also followed the instructions on how to obtain the api secret however that’s not possible. In AP mode I have checked the IP address but in my case http://192.168.220.1/secret does not provide a response. Any suggestions?
I dont… , is it a later firmware?
The firmware version is 1.62.4
That’s not the IP address. Following the instructions and connecting to the hub AP directly creates a different network using the hub AP address range. You need to use the IP as per the instructions.

The network when accessing the hub in AP mode is 192.168.220.0/24. The phone gets the address 192.168.220.10. Following the instructions and going to “http://192.168.8.1/secret 1” does not work. I have tried connecting using the IP 192.168.220.1 instead but that doesn’t work either. Any suggestions?
its been ages since I put the hub in AP mode. Not at home now but if your network is 192.168.220.0/24 then try http://192.168.220.1/secret (without the 1, its a typo in the docs)
I’ll check it later tonight when Im back
Thank you! Just for the record I did try http://192.168.220.1/secret (without the 1) also without any luck.
I use Fing on my phone when I have to deal with unknown networks.
It helps me to find any other devices on it. It has a feature also to do a port scan on a device to know what is open.

Fing could help actually… We need to find the ip address of the wiser hub and then (assuming the EU version is the same as the UK) /secret to get the secret out of the hub…
Can you tell us which model of the Hub you have actually?
There are actually a few of them.
It’s the Wiser Gateway (550B1001). https://www.lk.dk/produkter/?iid=550B1001
Firmware version is 1.62.4
Right, here is the issue, this integration was primarily written to support the UK Drayton Wiser solution for heating (see here https://wiser.draytoncontrols.co.uk/how-set), not this gateway… I know Mark @msp1974 has been working with @LGO44 on getting some EU hub features working but given we dont have the hubs its been difficult to get working…And after doing some googling I think there are quite a few different wiser hubs/gateways,…

And some works together with the Heat Hub and standalone as well, which is the most confusing… (Wiser Home Touch).
As @Angelo_Santagata said, this is not the Hub which for the integration has been built,
BUT
Assuming that the Hub operates the same way as the Heat Hub, you can help to reverse engineer it.
For finding the secret, you would need a computer running WireShark connected to the Hub’s AP and do a commissioning of the Hub. When the Hub commissioned the mobile app, in theory, should acquire the secret, and set the Wifi settings. What could be captured by WireShark when happening.
On the other side, there is a way to connect that Hub by Ethernet to your network, so must be another way to acquire the secret, not just through the AP mode. Which suggests that the secret might be available when the Hub is in a factory reset state, before commissioning.
Just got home from a few days away to find my wiser integration not working.
Uploading a pic of the logs to see if anyone can help me.
I’ve Restarted HA a few times and done all updates etc
Any help appreciated!
Have you done a full machine restart. Its also complaining it cant connect to you fully kiosk so looks like a network issue.
yeah, first check the network and then check the IP address of the hub hasn’t changed (Look in your router).
Ive noticed that Virgin sometimes resets the hub and I loose DHCP reservations…

Thanks for all the help, checked and re-checked everything and nothing was different.
Deleted & re-installed the integration and all seems well now
@tma - if you have your phone and the wiser app installed, you can use HTTP Canary to capture the http messages between the app and the hub. You secret will be in the header information sent with each hub command.
It maybe as Angelo says that the specific model you have will not be supported by this integration, in particular as the firmware on both the UK and the EU one @LGO44 has is v3.8.8 - so it maybe this is just very different firmware.
Let us know if you get any progress.
