Echonet Lite disconnecting sporadically until restart

[16thompn]

Good morning

I have been having this issue with my Mistsubishi Electric MSZ AP25/70 Aircon units since March and have tried numerous things to solve the problem.

After restarting home assistant, the aircons connect successfully and will maintain a connection anywhere from a few hours to several days before they become unavailable in home assistant and will not reconnect until the home assistant system is restarted. They still remain connected through the Mitsubishi App as well as through Google Home. They were running without issue for about 18 months before this issue began. I had not updated or changed anything on my homeassistant OS in about 6 months. Since then, I have updated to the latest version of echonet as well as updated the homeassistant core and homeassistant OS.

I have ensured that my router keeps these aircons on a static IP so that should not be the issue. I have enabled the debug log and posted the results below. You can see it is working normally before it seemingly begins timing out and will not reconnect. I'm not sure if this is an issue with the integration or my own personal setup. I have tried deleting and re-adding the devices since updating to the latest version of echonet. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love the integration and use it everyday.

Please let me know if you need any more info. The debug log was 40mb as I enabled it immediately after restarting and it took three days before the latest disconnection issue so have included just the snippet below.

Cheers Nick
