Hello everyone, I wanted to share my experience with integrating Zigbee devices after encountering an IP change issue. Earlier, I faced a problem where all my Zigbee devices stopped working after my router’s IP address changed. This was quite puzzling since Zigbee devices are supposed to operate independently of the Wi-Fi network. However, I discovered that the issue was related to how the devices were paired with my Zigbee coordinator. Here’s what I did to resolve the problem: 1. Understanding the Problem: I realized that when the IP address of my network changed, the Zigbee network lost its configuration, causing all devices to disconnect. This was unexpected, but it made sense since the network relies on a stable setup. 2. Research and Solutions: I looked into the community forums and found that others had similar issues, especially when using DHCP. The solution involved resetting the Zigbee network and re-pairing all devices. 3. Resetting the Zigbee Network: I followed the steps to reset my Zigbee coordinator. This process varies depending on the manufacturer, but generally, it involves holding down a specific button on the device until the LED starts blinking. 4. Re-pairing Devices: After resetting, I systematically re-paired each Zigbee device. This was a bit time-consuming, but I used a checklist to ensure I didn’t miss any. 5. Testing and Confirmation: Once all devices were re-paired, I tested each one to confirm they were working. It was a relief to see everything functioning smoothly again. Tips for Others Facing Similar Issues: - Always keep a backup of your Zigbee network configuration if possible. - Use static IP addresses for your Zigbee coordinator to avoid future issues. - Familiarize yourself with the reset and re-pairing process for your specific devices. This experience taught me the importance of understanding my network’s configuration and the resilience of Zigbee devices when properly managed. I’m now confident in maintaining a stable smart home ecosystem. If anyone has questions or needs further guidance, feel free to ask! Happy automating!
