Miio --discover does not find gateway about miio HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks for the report! The device discovery used in miio --discover does not depend on the local developer connection on the gateway, it instead uses a broadcast to the port 54321 that devices respond to. It will scan every few minutes until you close it by pressing Ctrl+C.

I have a few questions that might help with figuring out why it doesn't work:

• Are you running the latest release of the command line app?
• What firmware version is your gateway running? You can find it in the Mi Home app on the same page where the Local Developer API is configured.
• Do you have any special network configuration? Especially something that could block UDP broadcasts such as having the gateway on a separate IP-range?

Hi,

about your questions:

Are you running the latest release of the command line app?
I believe so. I've installed the miio last night.
What firmware version is your gateway running? You can find it in the Mi Home app on the same page where the Local Developer API is configured.
I'm running the 1.4.1_146
Do you have any special network configuration? Especially something that could block UDP broadcasts such as having the gateway on a separate IP-range?
Don't think so.

Let me know if you need any more details.

Thanks.

Thank you for the details. I'm not sure what is causing the broadcast that the discovery uses to fail for your setup. I have a few network related changes coming up so I'll investigate a bit when I'm making those changes.

Closing this issue, moving all discovery issues into #92.
