I'm looking for somebody who is able to setup a Home Assistant Core (python virtualenv) instance to compare the behavior of the pure HA core setup with a Home Assistant OS (docker) setup.

I need more testing but it seems my Unifi Dream machine was blocking some traffic from Xiaomi, that's why my 2 vacuums were having issues.
My settings are these:

As soon as I stopped to block, everything is coming back online.
For those having the issues, are you behind ubiquiti hardware ?

[PskNorz]

No i dont got ubiquitu hardware, my set up is simple, just a router but it keeps giving me errors.

Timeout fetching xxxx data

I'm looking for somebody who is able to setup a Home Assistant Core (python virtualenv) instance to compare the behavior of the pure HA core setup with a Home Assistant OS (docker) setup.

I am using a pure python venv installation and have the same issue. In addition the temperature sensors often stay at the same level without any update for way too long.

My system is not reachable from the outside, but that does not apply since the devices are locally anyway (not using the cloud button).

Xiaomi Air purifiers H3 and Pro

[dawiinci]

The problem with not sending updates seems to be
related to Xiaomi, since they seem to only give an update if the value changes at least 0.5 degree Celsius.

If that is on the plug-in side - which I hope - I would like to change that. Is that possible?

[rytilahti]

My system is not reachable from the outside, but that does not apply since the devices are locally anyway (not using the cloud button).

Not having them connected to the cloud might be irrelevant, as there are devices that are known to become unresponsive on specific conditions, like on some roborock gen1 firmware vacuums think they are stuck and are rebooted by a watchdog when they are not receiving any responses for their requests. See https://python-miio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/troubleshooting.html#intermittent-connection-issues-timeouts-xiaomi-vacuum for some details on that.

[dawiinci]

This was may concern. So there is nothing we can do, right? Maybe extending the timeout would be making sense, considering the watchdog has a timeout as well.
