Yeelight not detected

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

I have a Yeelight RGB smart bulb which works OK with the Yeelight app & is connected to the Singapore server (I believe this is the only server that will work with Google Assistant & Alexa). The LAN connection option has been enabled in the app. Unfortunately the bulb is not detected by Home Assistant. Any ideas?

Thanks

This happened to me recently, just stopped connecting. To sort it I had to manually add each one with IP to configuration.yaml. No problems since.

Thanks, could you let me know what you put in your configuration.yaml file? Will it matter if I don’t have the exact device ID?

you only need the IP address. look in components for Yeelight for configuration information.
