[SOLVED]My sonoffs (tasmota) keep spamming mqtt STATUS messages

Hey guys,
Something is wrong and my sonoffs with tasmota firmware keep spamming status messages on my broker.
I have a constant spam of these messages every 8 seconds.

Upgraded, did a “reset 5” command and it seems to have fixed it for now :slight_smile:

For anyone in future who finds this, the TasmoAdmin addon causes a lot of traffic as well.

Ah, I got that installed, do you think it’s what is causing the sonoff to report stuff all the time?

Only if you have the TasmoAdmin web page open. Then it is regularly refreshing device info from the broker.

@tom_l That was the issue, thanks a lot man.
As you said, i only get the STATUS spam whenever the tasmoadmin is open on a browser.
So i guess no real issue after all.
Thanks again
