Trouble with zigbee2mqtt (solved, it was interference)

Third party integrations
,

RPI4 with attached SSD,
Conbee2 Zigbee stick

I wanted to switch from Deconz/Phoscon to Zigbee2MQTT:

  1. Uninstalled Deconz
  2. Installed Zigbee2MQTT
  3. edited config to force recognition:
    port: >-
    /dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden_elektronik_ingenieurtechnik_GmbH_ConBee_II_DE2211815-if00
    adapter: deconz
  4. enabled accepting pairing
  5. re-paired some devices

Now i get really really bad results and almost everything is either falsely recognized or just does not work at all (interview failed)

what is wrong here?

solved it. i had placed the zigbee antenna too close to my router and had really really bad noise because of this.

after switching from a 20cm usb extension cable to a much longer one, it works a lot better.
