Hi folks, im trying to figure out what this “iBeacon Tracker” is.
i added a BT dongle to my HA, and this popped up. I cannot tell what device this is or what it does. ANy insight is appreciated
By the looks of it, there aren’t any iBeacon devices discovered yet since there is no carat to indicate a dropdown and no devices or entities count…
Could be just someone with an Apple Airtag walking by. If it was again out of range when you clicked add, it will not be added and you’ll get the emoty list.
If you live at the side of a busy highway, all the tire pressure monitors will whizz past, emitting a BLE signal for a short time till they are out of range. Your BlueTooth will be absolutely plastered with unwanted traffic. Have a look at a debug log to see what is being recognised for giggles.
Filter by MAC for what you need and ignore the rest.
If you suspect you are getting stalked by somebody with a tracker, call the police.
well there is nothing under it or there was nothing under it until today a nd two rivian sensors showed up
Tyre pressure monitors or door lock controllers? A MAC address search lookup will identify the vendor that manufactured the BlueTooth device.
Did the Rivians have darkened windows and diplomatic or government number plates, and discreetly park down the street a little? If not, filter out all BLE traffic except the ones you are interested in by MAC addresses, and give your paranoia a rest.
BlueTooth signals are everywhere - the airwaves are saturated with them. Your dongle device is (correctly as commanded) showing them.
