Aqara FP2 cannot be discovered in SmartThings (TV Hub and Mesh Network)

Im also having difficulties, strange thing is that when I add aqara fp2 through smartthings app, and look at the logs, discovery never even starts, instead for some reason my smartthings hub on Samsung S90C tv is trying to do bose discoveryโ€ฆ looking at logcat logs, i cant see any lines about aqara driver, however it is listed as one of the drivers available.

Please select the correct driver in the SmartThings CLI:

Thanks for providing logs!

If I select that, there is nothing in the logs. I only get some output when I select all. (Hit enter at the point in your screenshot without typing anything)

Make sure that your SmartThings hub and the FP2 are in the same network. Check the router settings if client separation/isolation is enabled - it shouldnโ€™t.

Oh and the FP2 must be added and configured in the Aqara Home app first. But Iโ€™m sure you already know that.

Hello,

I can confirm that I too am having issues connecting the FP2 sensor to SmartThings. My ST hub is my Samsung S95C tv and everything is on the same network (UniFi APs) and single VLAN. No client isolation is enabled.

I too have reset the FP2 every way as described in this thread with no luck in it being detected by ST when joining it.

I can also confirm that I see no output from the SmartThings CLI tool logcat command shown in this thread when monitoring the Aqara driver (1). Like other users I only see output from logcat when monitoring the other drivers e.g., SONOS.

Any help appreciated.

Can you have a look into this, @nayelyz ?

And

The difference between the Aqara FP driver and the Bose and Sonos drivers are the search parameters:

Bose:

ssdp:
  - searchTerm: "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:MediaRenderer:1"

Sonos:

ssdp:
  - searchTerm: "urn:smartspeaker-audio:service:SpeakerGroup:1"

Aqara FP2:

mdns:
    - service: "_Aqara-FP2._tcp"

Is it possible that the TV hubs canโ€™t search via mdns?

@mogim0gi @DesertStorm

Try to add the FP2 by not scanning for devices but as described in this comment:

If you want, you could delete the Bose and Sonos drivers here:

https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/hubs

Select hub, Drivers, trash bin icon next to their names.

They will come back sooner or later automatically and Iโ€™m not even sure if they are really deleted, but it is worth a try.

Hi,

I can confirm that I have tried every combination of steps described in this thread multiple times, all with no luck in getting the sensor connected to ST.

The only difference I can see is that I am not seeing anything on the ST cli logcat output for the Aqara driver which is making me think it could be the tv based hub not seeing the advertisement packets from the sensor?

Thanks

I have tried, removed both sonos and bose drivers, started log output - using all drivers, as expected, no change - logcat doesnt log anything when I start Aqara FP2 pairing using the suggested pairing method:

Hi,

It looks like your hub is also a TV (OLED)? This is common to my scenario in that we are both using the ST hub functionality in our TVs and both not seeing the advertisements on the logcat output.

Interesting!

@mogim0gi @DesertStorm

For debugging purposes: can you temporarily connect your TVs to your routers via Ethernet?

Tried, no change :

Hi,

Driver details from my ST hub (Samsung s95c OLED TV).

Hi, @Andreas_Roedl
Let me catch up on the conversation and also ask about the support of this type of driver on Family hubs to see if it could be the reason.
Iโ€™ll get back to you once I know more

Thanks! Conversation starts here:

Has anyone been able to get this to work on a mesh home network?

I am stuck on the โ€œprepare your deviceโ€ page within SmartThings app even after the following:
Installing the Aqara FP2 driver
Updating the FP2 firmware to 1.2.8
Removing and readding the device in Aqara Home app

I wonder if my Eero network is causing issues. I have a Smarthing Hub connected to the Eero router (hardwired)

Hi, @mogim0gi, @DesertStorm

As you both have a similar Hub type, Iโ€™ll add you to the same report, to do so, can you share the info below with me, please?

  1. We need you to replicate the error. This means trying to onboard the device again
  2. Take note of the date and time of the attempt and share it including your timezone. For example: 10:00 GMT-6
  3. Then, send your Hub logs:
  1. In the Advanced Users app, enter the โ€œHubsโ€ section
  2. Enter the corresponding Hub and click on โ€œDump Hub logsโ€
  3. Confirm the process by clicking on โ€œDump Hub logsโ€ again in the pop-up.
  4. Youโ€™ll get a green box at the top confirming the Hub logs were requested
  1. Finally, confirm the email account registered in the forum is the same one you use for SmartThings. If not, please share it with me over DM
  2. Enable support access to your account:
  1. Go to the SmartThings Web (my.smartthings.com)
  2. Log in to your Samsung Account
  3. Select Menu (โ‹ฎ) and choose Settings
  4. Toggle on Account Data Access
  5. Select the time period and confirm - In this step, please select โ€œUntil turned offโ€, once the team finishes, weโ€™ll let you know so you can disable it again.

Hi, @tryintoautomate

Iโ€™ll report your issue separately but I need the same information as above but include the steps you followed to install the device in SmartThings as well, please.

Hey there!
I have generated the hub logs and have toggled on account data access as you have instructed

Are you able to access the hub logs yourself or do I need to post it in this thread?

The email is the same for both this and my ST account.

Thanks!

When you follow the steps above, those logs are uploaded to a SmartThings server that only certain team members can access. Or, are you referring to the Driver logs?

If you have them you can email them to build@smartthings.com to add them to the report just in case.
