I am struggling getting WLED integrated onto HA.
Here is my configuration:
HA installed on a RPi through ethernet on my main network: 192.168.1.46:8123.
WLED installed after a WIFI router and gets its DHCP address 10.0.4.33
WLED accessible from my Phone, no issue here.
if I make a ping to WLED from anywhere from any laptop connected on the WIFI router network, WLED responds positively (normal)
if I make a ping to WLED from anywhere from the main network, WLED responds positively
But when I try to add the WLED integration on HA and enter HOST, I get an error “failed to connect”
This is ok, but problem is that HA installed is installed on a standalone Rpi device connected on Ethernet to my network with no keyboard, no mouse, nor display. If I hook up a keyboard+mouse+screen, can I interrupt current functionning to get access to the UI interface to launch traceroute somehow ? Sorry, I think I need some Linux training…
Thanks Tom ! indeed, now I get it to work. Using traceroute suggestion from Nick, it looks like instead of staying inside my network, the wled host address traceroute goes out of somewhere !..
Thank you Nick. Following your advice, I created a static route that seems to work now.
I made good progress as traceroute does not show error anymore, but WLED integration still fails to connect:
Thank you Nick, I changed the location of the WLED with a different subnet and it works now: looks like my wifi router (EERO) is blocking the comm for the HA at one point because making a traceroute from another PC on the same subnet than where the RPi is located was working fine. Anyway: get my access to WLED now. Thanks again !
