I’ve recently reconfigured my Home Assistant setup and wanted to share my experience:
I switched my SkyConnect to act as my Thread Border Router after reading about the current issues with multiprotocol support.
I tested a separate Zigbee stick (SONOFF Zigbee Gateway, ZBDongle-E 3.0 USB Dongle Plus, EFR32MG21 + CH9102F/CP2102N ), but I returned it due to issues with IKEA devices.
Now, I’m trying the Zigstar UZG-01 , hoping that its Ethernet connection will provide more flexibility.
The Issue
Unfortunately, when I attempt to add the UZG-01 (both manually and via automatic discovery), I get an “Unknown Error” :

Has anybody an idea? Do you need more info? Should I start from scratch or try Z2M? I’m out of ideas.

I just tried adding XZG to ZHA.
I did not encounter the problems you describe.
I have uploaded a video demonstration on GitHub.

I think you should use 0914 but not 1001 if there are any problems with that, and use manual adding.
