Do you have other tbr at your home, from apple, amazon or google?
I just ordered a SMHUB for OTBR testing because i hope to get better results with an external gateway.
I run HA in Proxmox, moving my Zigbee network from the Sonoff stick to a SLZB-06M did help in the past.
he official sonoff flasher supposed to be the solution but the issue with the driver is still there. After two hours I found a reddit post
see here

which is pointing here
where is lying the correct driver for the case!
Thanks to orignal poster of reddit named āpatgeoā
same here! @raykholo you are a star!!
@raykholo have you by any chance faced the error "Thread network credentials does not match with any of the active thread networks aroundā when attempting to install the network key into an iPhone?
I canāt complete that part, and without that I canāt onboard devices onto the new network. I posted an ask for help here and here.
I would appreciate it if you could give me a hand!
Thank you for the pleasant responses from those my guide has helped.
Unfortunately I do not have any other help to offer for the ārecentā follow up questions. I do not use any 3rd party Matter/ Thread devices as of yet. The whole point of doing this last year was to get an ESP32-C6 to connect to Thread, and as a quick proof of concept, I enabled the RGB LED on it and had it show up/ played with it in HA.
Today, I updated HA and all relevant integrations/ apps including: Matter, OTBR, and ESPHome Builder. My ESP32-C6 with RGB LED still works.
My limited research suggests that using iOS devices to connect a 3rd party Thread device to your HA OTBR remains a finicky process
āand the fundamental problem is that Appleās Thread credential management in iOS is opaque, with no user-facing way to inspect or purge stale entries from the keychain.ā
@kitus you received a response here, I hope it helps you: Thread Border Router (ZBT-2) and iOS: "Thread network credentials does not match with any of the active thread networks around" - #10 by wmaker
