I’m trying to setup Zigbee2mqtt with the Conbee II on HA using Virtualbox running on a Win 11. The directions I find on YouTube show going to System and clicking on the three dots which brings up Hardware to search for the Conbee II controller. Unfortunately running the Virtualbox give me only “Virtual Machine ova”. How do I get the devname?
You should be going to “Settings > System > Hardware” where you see “Virtual Machine ova”. On that page you click the 3 dots and select “All hardware”. I’m using Virtualbox, and that works for me. My Conbee shows up under “ttyACM0”.
Alternatively, within Virtualbox you can “show” the VM and type “login” at the “ha >” prompt, and then type
ls /dev/serial/by-id
If you don’t see the Conbee’s id, confirm that it is checked under “Devices > USB” for the VM.
