Hello everyone! So, about a week ago, I had my HA connected to my Starling Hub and everything was working (more or less, I didn’t get a lot of time to mess with it). A few days later, I had a major issue with my router and my modem and had to factory reset both of them. Since re-setting up my network, I can’t get HA to connect to my Starling.
I follow all the steps, but I get a “failed to connect” error. Thing is, this happened before - I found an answer online or figured it out or something, I was able to get past the error.
But I can’t, for the life of me, remember how! I have searched all over, I have tried everything - but nothing is working this time!
I am hoping one of you can help me.
Like I said, I DID have it working before - I didn’t have to unpair it from HomeKit or anything (and I don’t want to this time either), and I got it working. I just can’t remember how!
Unfortunately, no. I have no idea how I got it working before - I am hoping to get it figured out sooner or later. I am still trying - if I figure it out, I promise to post about it here
I seem to have fixed the problem (more or less), and once again, I am not exactly sure what I did that fixed it. But I do know what I did differently, although it doesn’t make much sense as to why this would have fixed it. But here goes:
In Starling, when you go to the “Developer Connect” section (I believe that’s what its called), you can click on a link that will take you to a page that gives you the information that you need. To this point, I typed it in myself - being sure to type exactly what I saw. This time I copied it and pasted it into Home Assistant - and now it works.
I dunno why this seemed to work, but it did work for me.
