@Emil said in Is firmware using DHCPRequest instead of PING by mistake?:

Hi. I have applied the patch you linked to and built a new firmware for Flic Hub LR.

@akiraK @yea @Djelibeybi please give me the serial numbers of your hubs so I can assign the new firmware if you want to test it, to see if the patch works.

@johan-0 yes

Hi. You could try to ask this question on some Apple forum since we do not have knowledge about this. We know how to deliver button events to Homekit but then it's up to Apple how the rest works.

If you're lucky maybe some Flic user that knows something will answer here.

@daniele-inaudi yes

How do you find the response time using HA?

I currently have a few FLIC buttons using Alexa integration to manage lights when we don't feel like talking to Alexa. The initial lag can be a few seconds, which while not horrible isn't instantaneous.

Granted, it does take as long to say "Alexa, turn on the sink light" and have it illuminate as it does to click the button and have the light illuminate. Turning it off and on in the HA dashboard is instantaneous though.

See https://community.flic.io/post/20147.

@flic-v not sure exactly what you did but if you set a custom password through the app, this should override the password on the back.

@oskaremilsson yup. Erm. So.. this is awkward.
The phones BLE scanner must have gotten stuck in some bad state.
A restart of the phone worked 🤦‍♂️

Didn't cross my mind that the issue could be that deep into the system.
As a dev I should've tested that as #1 though 🙃

Thanks, and sorry! 😅

@Emil I don't have Alexa.. here's the device info https://sonoff.tech/product/diy-smart-switch/micro/

@Emil Thanks: whatever you have done seems to have worked. My hub updated successfully to 3.0.9 and Alexa integration now seems to be working.

We have rewritten the Chromecast integration from scratch. We'll send out a new firmware update in the upcoming days. This should fix the isuse.

@theo I think you need to add the http:// prefix to the url.

Hi. Please use https://flic.io/support for support questions.

Everything runs from a read-only system, so i doubt malware has gone into it. Probably just some bug in the widely used Linux OS we run on it if anything.

I would be glad if you could share Wireshark logs or something of the packets you are seeing.

It has a built-in Bluetooth Classic radio inside the wifi chip, but for now we are not using it for anything. Maybe in the future.
