At one point I had setup an automation to turn a light pink and notify my phone at 5:30pm local time via node-red. One day that notification started also triggering at 9:30am and I could not track down the reason for why this was occurring, I tried everything I could think of before finally just reformatting my SD card and starting with a fresh install.
Unfortunately, on a fresh install of Hass.io with no addons/components setup other than duckdns and my hue lights to see if the light still changes color, the automation is still running.
I thought it might be something related to the iOS component, but that was not setup on this most recent test and I still had it occur.
Anybody have a clue as to what could be causing this? Could HA have something stuck/cached on a server that is tied to my IP/username and therefore gets triggered regardless of my fresh install?
When I said “fresh install” I meant two different SD cards that were both reformatted first. I did that to take care of situations where there were persistent files from the previous install.
I have experienced in the past with other stuff that weird things happen to my wifi connected stuff when my neighbor is also playing with their own wifi connected stuff.
I tried a couple more things including resetting the hue hub with no luck. Deleting my duckdns domain and creating a different one got rid of the issue. Thanks again from the suggestions though!
