I am planning to use it as a 2.4 gHz VLAN exclusively for the IoT devices.

Thank you Markus and Stefan.

Like AVM FRITZ!Box 4040 International?

66er thank you for your reply.

Sorry, you do something wrong. My >120 shelly all work with static IP!

I am pretty confident that we follow the instructions correctly.

We have a Puma7 chipset modem/router. Could that be the cause of the issues?

I have found the Erste Hilfe Koffer.

Dort finde ich nur Modems die nicht kompatibel sind.

Gibt es auch eine Liste mit modems die besonders geeignet sind fuer Shelly?

Gruesse,

Els

Hej Elsdeniep

If your Shellies go offline after setting a fixed IP, the router maybe set up in a way it doesn't accept fixed IPs. So possibly you don't need a new router but should check the router - setup.

And to your question: possibly you don't see the problems Alibaba - users have, because there's no forum. After many years of Alibaba and now about 450 Shellies in the last 1,5 years my choice is absolutely Shelly.

MarkusSorger thank you for your opinion.
In Holland, I have a Ziggo modem.router with Puma7 chipset .

The setup can hardly be changed (DHCP settings, etc.)
I want to bridge the Ziggo modem and create a VLAN in a better manageable router.

Do you think that is a good idea?

I really like the Shelly concept, but in my experience we do not come across installation and connectivity problems with other devices. Our Shelly's demand more problem solving.

For that reason I am looking to create a better setup.

Hi all,

Our Shelly's go offline regularly.

Solution could be: fixed IP-address.

However, each time we try to set a fixed IP-address, the Shelly goes offline forever.

Maybe the solution is to install a new modem/router.

Is there a list of modem/routers that are recommended by Shelly?

Just curious: Why is it that my cheap Aliexpress smart devices never have problems with setup and reliability and Shelly's do?

Hi,

My Shelly Motion I/O Actions are not retrieved by the app nor by the desktop version "Shelly Home".

Message is: "Failed to get actions. Please try again."

It is also impossible to set new I/O Actions in that screen.

Funny enough, although invisible in the app, the I/O Actions do work.

Anybody has an idea of what is going wrong?

Thanks for thinking with me.

What is DDD command?

Hi forum,

Can anybody tell me what the blue dot means in the i/o url icon?

As far as I know we have set up two motion sensors identically and 1 is showing teh blue dot and the other isn't.

image showing NO blue dot

image showing blue dot

Any suggestions are very welcome since we have to deal with strange behaviour of the Shelly motion sensors.

Thank you.I will study this a bit.

vsvasilatos people say it is best to give Shelly devices a fixed IP address.

However, I never succeeded since settings in modem/router need to be adjusted as well since you need to make a reservation for a range of IP addresses on you router.

To do so is not idiot proof, as I found out.

As I understand, the idea is:

1. make reservation of IP addresses on your router

2. use these IP addresses for your Shelly fixed IP addresses.

Hopefully somebody can provide a full tutorial on this.

Ok. I will see if scripting is something for me. Does it mean that I have to go into mqtt?

I that case: what client and what server/broker would you recommend?

I have tried a few times to get myself started with mqtt but I run into issues like security and missing bits of windows.

Hi Forum.
It happens many times that changing the settings in the Shelly Android app are not stored.

When I reload the app, the old settings are still there.

Most of the times I can update the settings via the browser.

Why is it that I cannot update the settings via the Android app?

Thank you SebMai. Excuse me for my late reply.

I have used this solution for some other scenes and it works well.

However, for the sake of simplicity, would it be possible to trigger the group itself at sunset/sunrise?

Eulhofer that is a brilliant answer! Problem solved. Thanks a lot.

Hello Wolfgang,

Both relay channels are in relay mode.
I have set the load type for channel 0 to "lights".

Channel 1 is set to "socket".

In the shelly.cloud page in the browser, the Shelly 2.5 has status offline.

However, in the Android app the Shelly 2.5 is present and functioning.

Only function that is not working are the scenes.

Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Dear Forum.

I have a Shelly 2.5 that should be triggered by Shelly motion.

With other Shelly's we have used I/O URL Action like so:

http://192.168.xxx.xxx/relay/0?turn=on&timer=300

When I use this syntaxis for Shelly 2.5 and load it in the browser, I get a "not found" message.

Would somebody be able to give me a hint how to switch Shelly 2.5 with I/O URL Actions?

SOLVED

Answer is:

Set "ON" time like this:

http://192.168.xxx.xxx/relay/0?turn=on&timer=ttt

Where ttt = time to status "OFF" in seconds.

Note that "END OF MOTION DETECTED" has to be disabled.

Thanks to 66er in the COLLECTION OF HTTP-COMMANDS post.

Hi Forum.

My Shelly Motion sensor triggers another device with I/O URL action like this:

http://192.168.xxx.xxx/relay/0?turn=on

After being switched on, apparently the triggered device switches off after 1 minute by default. I would like to keep it on for more than 1 minute.
Is there a way to do that via the Shelly Motion I/O command?

In that case I am looking for something like:

http://192.168.xxx.xxx/relay/0?turn=on/120seconds

Or can the "on" time only be set in the triggered device settings?

If it needs to be done via the triggered device, I have a problem, since this device is part of a scene. That scene switches the device off after ten minutes.

I hope someone can get me started with this issue.

is cloud connected?

ip/status (cloud:)

@Olsche, yes the cloud is connected.
All is ok now.

What is shown when you enter IPfromyourMotion/status in the address line of the browser?

under lux: (as here in the example)

Der Inhalt kann nicht angezeigt werden, da Sie keine Berechtigung haben, diesen Inhalt zu sehen.

Thanks for the ip-adress/status trick. That shows a lot of info!

has the mistake been made for all of them since the initial setup? Tried to reboot?

What thresholds did you enter?

According to my personal feelings, I chose 10 for dark and 250 for dusk.

Thanks @Olsche .
I have used the default settings.

To test, we have used 800 for dark and 1000 for dusk.

ADDED:

It works. Thanks @Olsche !

What also helped was refreshing the Shelly app each time after changing the settings.
