I try to setup MQTT for my home assistant setup. I installed Mosquito and its working inside home assistant. But when I try to send messages from my laptop to my mosquito broker I cant see it in my MQTT subscriptions within home assistant. Even when I subscribe to my broker with my laptop its all working but I dont receive my messages.
I get logs in my home assistant when I subscribe and when i publish but still cant see my messages.
