I had two different Enbrighten devices stop responding over the past two days. In the past, I've just power cycled them but not figured out why they were not working.
Today, I sniffed the traffic, and discovered that the coordinator had no route to the device such as:
While I could see
Route Request
commands being sent, there were noRoute Record
responses coming from the devices. This was even though I could see occasional link status broadcasts coming from those devices.As soon as I power cycled the devices, I saw them sending
Route Record
responses and all was good again.I don't see any bug in herdsman for this and think its' an issue with the Enbrighten devices. I've seen this behaviour across a few different models, so I wouldn't be surprised if they all had this issue. Enbrighten has never issued a firmware update for Zigbee devices, so I think we should put this warning in the docs. I know between this and jascoproducts/firmware#127, I wish I had used a different vendor!
