MQTT Explorer, constant disconnects

Configuration
1

im using MQTT Explorer. everything seems to be working fine a month ago. BUT after adding a device, i am seeing constant disconnect as seen here. can a device do that??? or maybe just coincidence. all of my MQTT devices, including the new ones, are working fine (i think)

The usual question is about the regular Client <unknown> closed its connection. entries in the Mosquitto Add-On log.

I’ve no idea what could be disconnecting MQTT Explorer as it has been so reliable for me.

  • Have you tried pinging the server from the client and looking for lost network packets?
    (i.e. is this something like a bad network cable on the client)
  • What is in the Mosquitto Add-On log?
