I have an 4GB Raspberry Pi 4, running on Ubuntu Server. I’m using the ConBee III as the receiver
ConBee III keeps on errorring out when plugged into the Raspberry Pi.
I also updated its firmware (deCONZ_ConBeeIII_0x26540900.bin.GCF) from here.
Tried with Docker:
$ docker compose -f /home/docker/zigbee2mqtt/docker-compose.yaml logs -f

I tried various USB ports, and all give the same issue. I also tried to use a SD card for booting to eliminate any form of USB interference (used to boot from an M.2 SATA connected to its USB3 port, but it didn’t work
