Hello, I have outdoor 12 Zigbee bulbs from INNR. I paired them nicely via Z2M in my Home Assistant. Now, after anything 30 minutes and 2 hours some of the bulbs become “unavailable” - status: offline. I re-pair them without deleteing the bulb and they work again, for the next minutes/hours. The bulb most far away is some 30m from the Zigbee router but the signal strength is >120 LQI as I am having other INNR bulbs in between. Any idea what triggers the problem and what the solution would be please?
Are they connected to a dumb switch, and are you turning off power at the switch?
I don’t know what triggers the problem. The bulbs are connected to ordinary wall switches, but these normally remain switched on, so the bulbs have permanent power. I control them through Home Assistant/Zigbee2MQTT. When the bulbs became unavailable, nobody was at home and nobody had operated the switches. I only power-cycled them afterwards while troubleshooting.
Hi, 1 of the zigbee smart bulbs here is mounted in a standing floor lamp which is regularly disconnected from mains power when the place is being cleaned.
After putting the plug back in, the connection is restored immediately, never let me down.
Other zigbee devices, like smart plugs: same thing, connection is restored right away after plugging them back in.
Other than that, the mesh is really stable and of course battery powered devices is another thing.
Check this, maybe there is something helpful in there: Zigbee network optimization: a how-to guide for avoiding radio frequency interference + adding Zigbee Router devices (repeaters/extenders) to get a stable Zigbee network mesh with best possible range and coverage by fully utilizing Zigbee mesh networking
