Here is the problem I am having: My HA was working fine until 3/28 when my son reset my router. I had my HA configured with a static IP from the HA UI. However, everything I have tried hasn't worked (see below). I thought I would try here to see if anyone has any ideas.

Went to the CLI and changed the eth0 from static to automatic didn't make a difference)
Went to the router and assigned new IP to HA (still didn't make a difference)
Went to CLI and enabled the Wifi and connected to my access point, then unplugged eth0 and rebooted. I checked that I could telnet to HA from my desktop and that worked (still couldn't get UI to load)
Did a fresh install and UI came up. Got logged in and restored from backup; then the UI won't load anymore
Checked observer URL and everything says healthy

#

Any ideas and/or help is welcomed!

When you connect to the console, what IP does it show?

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:03 PM

#

When HA boots up and the CLI shows, it has an internal IP address of 192.

#

I intentionally didn't put the rest of the numbers.

#

And is that an IP on your network? One not used by another computer?

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:04 PM

#

Yes, that is correct

buoyant gulch Apr 17, 2023, 2:04 PM

#

It's an IP range shared by half the planet, it's not sensitive

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:05 PM

#

I confirmed on my router that it is showing up as HA.

#

The IP is 192.168.50.135/24 That is what shows up on the CLI console.

#

From the command line, see if you can ping the router and 8.8.8.8

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:08 PM

#

I get 8.8.8.8 is alive!

buoyant gulch Apr 17, 2023, 2:09 PM

#

Ok, so it can reach the world, which is good

#

What does the core log show?

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:14 PM

#

Some warnings and a couple of errors related to (MainThread)
One is failed to connect to Mqtt server error -12 name doesn't not resolve
The other is homeassistant.components.cloud.subscrption Failed to fetch subscription information

#

Ok, so could be a DNS problem

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:17 PM

#

I see another error
Homeassistant.config_entries Error setting up wii-u for tiplink

#

I have been thinking along the lines of DNS but I am not sure how to check that within HA CLI.

#

When I install a fresh HA, it works fine. As soon as I restore my backup, it stops working.

#

Prior to my router being reset, everything worked great!

buoyant gulch Apr 17, 2023, 2:19 PM

#

I'd guess that it's stuck trying to use a DNS server that doesn't exist shrug

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:21 PM

#

I know what it is now. I have it setup to access HA outside of my network. To do that I setup a DNS server on HA through the UI. I bet there was a setting in there that is not compatible with my router settings after it was reset.

sinful skiff Apr 17, 2023, 2:39 PM

#

Got it, I am in!

#

When I updated my system for access outside of my network, that required https for my local access.

#

Thank you for guiding me.
