I have no idea what tool that screenshot is of? or why the IP address is in the Device Network ID field.
Did you set it there? The device network ID field is for something different, and should have been set automatically to something like this on device creation ‘harmony_bridge_v2_1’. If you have changed that using some tool, as screenshotted above - I suggest you delete the devices and start again. It’s important that field is not changed, changing it could cause duplicate devices to be created.

You need to get your harmony IP address from either the harmony app, or your internet router. You need to make sure the address is reserved on your router, so it doesn’t change in future.

Once you have the IP address, you need to set it in settings for the bridge device using the harmony app.

Edit: I can see that is a screenshot of the IDE, that is for legacy devices and you definitely do not enter the IP address there. Delete the device and start again, configure the IP address in the samsung app as per the above screenshot

I have just pushed a driver update that fixes this, The driver will automatically install within the next 24 hours to your hub.

Once you have the driver,

To get your missing ‘power off’ devices follow these steps

  1. Turn on ‘config on connect’, if it’s already on, turn it off and back on - this will ensure your list of harmony activities is loaded into memory
  2. Wait 30s
  3. Turn on ‘activity devices enabled’, if it’s already on, turn it off and back on - this will create the missing activities
  4. Turn off ‘activity devices enabled’, turn off ‘config on connect’

Note for other readers You only need to do the above if you have been affected by bug and have missing ‘Power Off’ activities in a multi hub setup

Not sure what guide you are following but you should not be using the ide. The ide is not for edge devices

You should be able to setup and connect this completely from the mobile app. Is the mobile app what you used to configure the IP address? Are you sure you used the right ip address? What does it say on the history tab in the app

Yes sorry, I was looking at the IDE for activity as well.

used app for ip address etc

Ok, so what isn’t working?

Do you have config on connect turned on?

Turn on verbose logging, see if you get any more info on that history screen.

Can pm me if you prefer, I’ll try and help
