Not detecting Ultimate hubs

[pappaloo]

Got two Ultimate Hubs in my home.

Installed hombridge and homebridge-harmonyhub fairly easy. Now running, but don't seem to detect the hubs. Config and log below.

Also, tried Bonjour Browser, and I can only see my HomeKit plug and AppleTV, but no hubs. Is the Ultimate hub supported? I see there are different products online (Home Hub vs. Ultimate Hub), not sure what the differences are though...

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Config is very basic and I believe is what is suggested

{ "bridge": { "name": "Homebridge", "username": "CC:22:3D:E3:CE:30", "port": 51826, "pin": "031-45-154" },

"description": "This is an example configuration file with one fake accessory and one fake platform. You can use this as a template for creating your own configuration file containing devices you actually own.",

"platforms": [
    {
        "platform": "HarmonyHub",
        "name": "Harmony Hub"
    }
]

}

I have a very similar issue with a standard Home Hub.

I've recently reinstalled Homebridge and the homebridge-harmonyhub plugin on a new Raspberry Pi, and this means I'm now on v0.2.0 of the plugin. The old one worked flawlessly.

My configuration is as per the example, platform name and hub name only:

		{
		"platform": "HarmonyHub",
		"name": "Living Room Harmony Hub"
		},

Debug logs show:

No Harmony accessory or activities appear in my iOS Home app.

For the time being I've downgraded to 0.1.1. Interestingly using the same config (and bearing in mind I only specified platform and name parameters previously in 0.1.x) it didn't find the hub. I've added in the ip_address and it's now working fine.

For info I'm on hub firmware 4.12.36.

Sounds like your having Broadcast issues on your network as the harmony hub discovery uses broadcast for discovery, I was having similar issues until I enabled broadcast forwarding on my wifi network https://github.com/KraigM/homebridge-harmonyhub/issues/50#issuecomment-251628515

The problem though with most home routers they don't provide away to enable this between wired and wifi clients and sometimes even between 2.4GHz & 5GHz radios.

Interesting, I hadn't considered networking issues. Do bear in mind however that 0.1.x worked before without the ip_address parameter supplied, and nothing has changed (that I'm aware of) with my networking situation since the previous install. I'll keep an eye on it!

Try this software to see the broadcast on your network.

[rodti]

Hmm, using that software there are plenty of Bonjour devices advertising using various different services, but no services visible on the Harmony Hub. Is it possible that the problem is with the hub itself?

[pappaloo]

Switched from my Apple TimeCapsule to ATT Uverse service with a router from them. I immediately detected the hubs with homebridge.

Seems like RXM307 is most likely correct, however I didn't see too much info online to enable broadcast forward on any TimeCapsule so I couldn't try that theory out.
