Hass.io can't find Yeelight

Hello everyone,

I installed hass.io on my ubuntu 18 server today, this is the first time so my apologies if i’m being stupid.
I had no problems with the installation, HA found my tp-link switches and Google Cast devices but not my Yeelight color bulbs.

LAN mode is on and i couldn’t find “Yeelight” in the integrations section.

Can someone help me please?

If you are absolutely sure that your Yeelight is connected to your WiFi, it works from the Yeelight app and LAN mode is ON, then you may try to set it up manually. It looks like automatic config doesn’t work for you.

First of all in your router settings assign a static IP address to the bulb. Then disable automatic yeelight discovery in configuration.yaml. Look for the discovery entry in the file, do not create another duplicate.

discovery:
  ignore:
    - yeelight

Enable Yeelight manually in configuration.yaml:

yeelight:
  devices:
    192.168.1.25:
      name: Living Room

IP address must be the address you assigned to your bulb.
Name can be anything.

Thank you so much! I spend all day playing with HA and understand how the components work now.

Hi,

Im ruining HA on my Ubuntu server on docker container. And this server it’s in one vlan. On different vlan I have all my IoT devices. I made this change recently and now I can’t find any of my smart yeelight lights.

In configuration.yaml I have this configure like below.
yeelight:
devices:
192.168.xx.xx:
name: Living Room

I’m wondering, is there any of you who have thoughts on one Hogan and HA server on different and it works?

Seems like I have all firewall rules set correctly…maybe yeelight use particular port for communication?

Thanks for any advices
