New router?

Configuration
1

Hi all,

I have just swapped broadband providers and as such I have changed the router, I was planning on using my old username and password on the new router so I wouldn’t need to update all my Sonoff’s all over the house but this wasn’t possible.

Last night I connected my Raspberry to the new router (It’s connected with a cable) and the logged into each Sonoff (Running Tasmota) to swap the Wifi username, password and MQTT IP.

All this was successful, the Console in Tasmota on each device showed it connecting and passing information and I can see the connections in MQTT in HA.

Logging on to Home Assistant I noticed none of the information was updating and I could not switch anything so I restarted Home Assistant.
Now for every Entity it says “Entity not available” :roll_eyes:

I have updated the details on the Sonoff’s, I can see those working so why do I get the “Entity not available message”? Have missed a setting?

Can anyone suggested something that I have missed?

Regards
James

Just to add the Sonoff’s have kept the same IP address on the new router.

Also when I go to Developer Tools -> Go to the States UI none of the Sonoff’s appear, but when I log onto each Sonoff they seam to be working fine.

Could this be a MQTT setting that I have not updated?

IS the mqtt client connecting to home assistant ok?

Check the home assistant supervisor log.

I have just restarted MQTT and the log looks ok

:man_shrugging:

That’s the mqtt log.

Check the HA supervisor log.

I have just found this in the HA log

Log Details (WARNING)

Config entry for mqtt not ready yet. Retrying in 80 seconds.

It’s working! I had forgotten to change the MQTT IP address in Configuration.yaml

Thanks for your help
