Hello, I don´t know how to approach this problem the right way:
Since my start with HA, I´m using the Fritz device_tracker, although it´s known for keeping the device “home” way to long, even if the device already left minutes ago. (Not a HA issue, more a Fritzbox one)
Now, I would like make some lovelace cards with Plugs in my garden, so I need to track them, wether they are connected with WIFI or not.
In HACS, I found the “arpscan device tracker”, which sounds promising about the update time, so I installed it and editied my existing config this way:
device_tracker:
- platform: fritz
host: 192.168.1.254
track_new_devices: yes
- platform: arpscan_tracker
interval_seconds: 15
consider_home: 30
track_new_devices: true
include:
- 192.168.1.17
- 192.168.1.35
- 192.168.1.158
Well it doesn´t really work, as the fritz_tracker is always the one which sets the device to “not_home”, not the arpscan_tracker.
I tried to exclude the IP adresses I used with arpscan_tracker in the fritz section, but this is not supported from the fritz device tracker.
Is there anything I can do about it, or do I have to get rid of one device_tracker?
Thank you and a nice saturday,
Philipp
