Hi, I'm trying to navigate the complex world of getting an Open Thread Border Router that is running on my raspberry pi connected to the HA Thread and Border Router Integrations. I added the preferred network, but it says "no border routers found" and when I try to add credentials via the HA iOS app (in settings > companion app > debugging > thread), there is a blank page there. I've tested with avahi, and can see the thread network running. Any suggestions? I've read through so many docs pages and forum posts I'm pretty lost but feel like I'm 80% there..
Also, my ultimate goal is to connect some homekit devices to HA.. should I I just try this guide (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/homekit_controller/#adding-a-homekit-device-through-thread) and ignore these other settings in the HA integrations for Thread and OTBR?

I tried to follow the guide and I got "Failed to call service button/press. Unknown TLV type 74 for <class 'aiohomekit.meshcop.Meshcop'>" when trying to press the Provision preferred thread credentials" button in the homekit device settings..
