Hi,

I tried all the methods available online to make it work. Finally I found this web flasher. I connected Sonoff Dongle E V2 to my computer & flashed the latest firmware 7.4.4. Now its working. Hope this helps. Let me know if this works for you.

After upgrading my HA operating system on my Pi4 to 13.2 today I get the same issue and have not had any luck fixing it… It all worked totally without any issues before the update. Not sure if there were any breaking changes?!

I am on firmware 7.4.4, there doesn’t seem to be a newer one as far as I can see…
