EspHome Device appears offline

1- Fix your mDNS in your router…
2- Use a fixed IP
3- Add your local domain name to both your router and esphome device

  • domain (Optional, string): Set the domain of the node hostname used for uploading. For example, if it’s set to .local, all uploads will be sent to <HOSTNAME>.local. Defaults to .local.

Apparently, your router added the domain name inverellit.local somewhere along the line.

my first try would be to add

domain: .inverellit.local

to the wifi section in your esphome yaml.

ps: the esphome addon has nothing to do with an esphome functioning within HA; it is only used for programming the device, and not used anymore after that :wink:
