Hardware Version: V5
Firmware Version: Newest

Hi, 

 

Strange problem. 

 

I get the following issues in Domoticz :

Philips Hue error getting Light states

 

When I ping the hue bridge you will get the information that packages are lost. 

 

When I change the router Hue works without any issues, but I want to use this router. 

 

I hope someone could help me out. 

 

Thnx, your help is highly appreciated.

@Lymfo 

 

Can other wireless devices get internet from the Archer C7? 

 

What is the IP address and gateway obtained by the Hue bridge? Try to ping it from a local computer and show us the ping result. 

 

And you can change the wireless settings to give it a go, like the wireless channel and channel width. Please ensure that the firmware is up to date. 

 

Besides, you can give a call to their tech support to get some help. 

 

Good day.

@Kevin_Z Thank you for the quick reply.

 

The ip address/gateway are the same on both devices (Hue bridge and Archer C7). Other devices don't have any problems connecting to the router.

I checked with Philips and they sent me a new hub, but with the same result unfortunately.

 

I changed the channels/cables/hub/ports, but with no results. Only changing the router is successful.

 

In the meantime, I checked the IGMP snooping/proxy box. Hopefully, this will gives a positive result.

@Lymfo 

 

Thanks for your reply. 

 

You can take your time to test whether it works well with the IGMP snooping/proxy box. 

 

Any updates, please let us know.
