I have just begun trying to use Home Assistant. I was using HOOBS. The problem is I have 2 different ISPs/Routers with of course two different IP address. I have smart home items across both networks. I would like to manage them from one Home Assistant account. I am using a raspberry pi. If I use just ethernet I can detect the devices on that network. I have found a work around to use just wifi and I can detect the devices on that network. The problem and errors occur when I try to configure both. I get a bunch of set_channel errors. I have searched online and found many different and conflicting answers about it, but no one says how to do it. Is it possible to use wifi and ethernet together? Do I need to add a pi to each network and home assistant and have it link to the same Home Assistant instance? Is any of this possible? Any advice? Please help?

Is this sentence a typo? "If I use just ethernet I can detect the devices on that network". One problem I encountered early on was that after setting a static IP in HAOS the netmask was wrong. I thought it was set based on the original DHCP address but it defaulted back to a /32. Check that your netmasks are correct on both interfaces. However two interfaces running on the same subnet packets often end up going out one interface and coming back in the other, don't match up, and are dropped. Use one or the other but not both.
