@Emil Well I finally got back to playing around with the FLICHUB again. I have configured the hub to use wifi instead; however, before that I configured the access point nearest the FLICHUB with a new virtual SSID that has both Network and Access Point isolation enabled. Then all DNS traffic for that network is force redirected to OpenDNS preventing access to all known malware and botnet command & control servers. I think that fairly well sandboxes the FLICHUB to a point where I really do not care what the hub does other than send out traffic to other services such as IFTTT.

@Emil, Well no, that behavior has now proven to be nothing more than an annoyance, since a new problem has developed when my Ubiquiti Security Gateway received a firmware update today. Now the SG keeps flagging the flichub as infected with malware and denies all access to the flichub.

I disconnected the flichub from my network. Besides I have not found a way to integrate my Tuya/SmartLife compatible wifi smart plugs with the FLIC2 buttons yet.

I'll revisit this problem after the holiday.

I recently purchased a FLICHUB LR. It is hooked to my network via ethernet since the FLICHUB does not support WPA3. It has a static IP address assigned with a DHCP lease time of 1440 minutes (24 hrs).

For that past couple of weeks I have found the flichub is sending a DHCPREQUEST roughly every 62-67 seconds.
Shortly after 12am the interval is every 62 seconds. At some point that interval increases usually by one second until it reaches 67 seconds 2-3 hours before 11:59pm. I tried power cycling the HUB multiple times with no change. I have tried resetting it to default four times then reconfigure it, but it still does not change.

How do I make the flichub stop this behavior?
