I’ve been experiencing occasional connection issues with my DD-WRT router after restarting my Home Assistant setup. The error logs pointed to a connection timeout, which was frustrating but also a great learning opportunity. After some research and troubleshooting, I found that restarting the router a few times usually resolved the issue. While it’s not a permanent fix, it’s a reliable workaround for now. I’m curious if others have encountered similar issues or if there are more permanent solutions out there. 
Here’s a quick recap of what I did:
- Checked the router logs for patterns or recurring issues.
- Verified the firmware version and ensured it was up-to-date.
- Restarted both the router and Home Assistant multiple times.
- Reviewed the connection settings in Home Assistant to ensure everything was configured correctly.
If anyone has tips or alternative fixes, I’d love to hear them!
