What does your “Web UI” look like of the add-on? See the last screenshot of the startpost for an example.

its empty

And what devices do you have at the eWeLink app? Are there any with LAN mode enabled?

Hi,
Please make sure your iHost and your eWeLink devices are conencted to the same network ( router), and make sure the LAN-control feature is enabled.
(In eWeLink app, enter the device page, and go to device settings, the “LAN Control” option indicates that this feature is supported, please enable it.)

Had a little spare time today, and now it works :slight_smile:
iHost and router were in the same network and lan control feature was enabeld.
The problem was that all my devices were paird to philihps hue bridge, after unpairing to hue i was able to pair them with ihost.

not listed devices i was able to pair and seems to work:

Philips Hue white ambiance
Model: 9290022169 / LTA001

Philips Hue edison
Model: n/a (cant reach it)/ LTV001

Philips Hue Appear Outdoor wall light
Model: 1746330P7

Led Controller from aliexpress
Model: C02Z

5 in 1 Zigbee Mini Ultra Thin LED Controller from GLEDOPTO
Model: GL-C-002P / GL-C-008P

Had anyone sucess connecting aqara motion sensor ? as i understood they have same paring process like door sensors. but i can’t get it to work.

Another thing i noticed, both system time an ewelink log time are wrong compared to set timezone (switzerland). System time is 1 hour, and ewelink time 2 hours behind

The eWeLink Smart home add-on only shows LAN mode enabled devices linked to your eWeLink account. At the devices pages of the iHost also only LAN mode enabled devices are detected. Philips Hue doesn’t operate on the eWeLink platform and thus can only be showed on the iHost by pairing those Zigbee devices directly to the iHost as far as I know.

About the time difference: Welcome in the world of eWeLink where Daylight Savings Time have never taken into account…

I need assistance with the settings for the memory and % CPU of the Add-on . The User Guide skips over it. I have the RV1126 DDR4/4G and may add HA and Homebridge. Can you advise

You can leave it as displayed at the User Guide. It will work. It indeed would be great if the User Guide did mention that.
