Question--how does one get communication running between a Phoscon ConBee 2 Zigbee USB-Gateway and a Docker HomeAssistant install on a Synology 1019+ NAS? Seems like some drivers or a pass-through configuration might be needed to get it to work. Am brand new here... please be patient with my dumb question.

#

What version of the platform is on that NAS? DSM7, or something older, that works?

glass zephyr
#

DSM7

shut gazelle
#

Well... that's your problem

#

They removed USB passthrough

glass zephyr
#

Hmm... okay

shut gazelle
#

Don't buy one that's WiFi connected

#

If you're in North America then Tube is (relatively) local and has a good track record

glass zephyr
#

Okay--I'll take a look at new hardware 😦

shut gazelle
#

Given how sensitive the ConBee is to any form of RF interference, it's a good thing anyway ablobjoy

glass zephyr
#

What a pain--seems like it's one problem after another

#

Thanks @shut gazelle

#

Was able to get the device recognized, but am still looking for drivers that seem to have disappeared... Did this site get decommissioned?

#

Alternatively can HA be installed with the Virtual Machine Manager instead of Docker?

shut gazelle
#

I'd expect so, though I don't know if that'll help - I don't know that you can pass through USB to VMs either any more

Trying to figure out how to pass /dec/ttyACM0 to the Docker container now

shut gazelle
#

You lose nothing but time by trying

glass zephyr
#

I'm struggling to pass /dev/ttyACM0 to the Docker container

#

@shut gazelle Any idea how to do this?

#

Again, very new to Docker

glass zephyr
#

sudo docker run --restart always -d --name home-assistant -p 8123:8123 -v /volume2/docker/homeassistant:/config --device=/dev/ttyACM0 -e TZ=America/New_York --net=bridge homeassistant/home-assistant:latest

shut gazelle
#

I don't use Synology, I have no idea how to get kernel modules loaded... and, that's one fucked up Docker command

@glass zephyr Please give Feedback, if this a good / bad solution for you.

Read the docs I linked to

#

They answer all those points

glass zephyr
shut gazelle
#

They do

#

They clearly show using :stable

#

Because latest is the most recently built container image, which could be beta, dev, or stable

shut gazelle
#

They also show using host networking because that's the only supported configuration

@glass zephyr When using Discord's Reply feature it defaults to pinging the person you reply to, which can get frustrating for the target. Use Shift + click on the Reply option, or click @ ON to @ OFF to stop this - on the right side of the compose bar.

You have to change this every time (thank the Discord devs for that).

shut gazelle
#

The point is ... use :stable as shown in the docs

glass zephyr
#

Will do!

shut gazelle
#

Or don't, and then wonder why your HA install is broken without warning

glass zephyr
shut gazelle
#

Also known as ... we're having a conversation, you can stop with the damned notification pings demanding my attention

glass zephyr
#

Not really sure what that means either.

shut gazelle
#

Or not, because ... I'm done

glass zephyr
#

Geez okay. Sorry I'm new to the community. Appreciate the help

#

Re-read that link several times now and don't see specific mention of bridge/host and supported networking modes.

#

If a port is not specified will the host network know to pass port 8123 and be available on the local network?

#

Sorry I'm not an expert at the solution.
