Creating a wyoming satellite for travel, independent of local network. Possible?

[quick hatch]

I'm attempting to set up a Wyoming satellite that will go through Home Assistant Cloud using a long-lived token to use as a travel device, taking with me when I'm not home. At the moment, the satellite seems to be working, with events sending to HA, but auto-discovery isn't working, and I'm getting WARNING - Unable to find a device matching this satellite.

First question: Should this be possible?
Second: How should I either manually register the satellite with the HA Wyoming integration (What should host be?), or how could I get Wyoming to recognize the connection via zeroconf/auto-discovery?

@median barn Any thoughts?

I'm currently trying @toxic wraith's wyoming-satellite-termux install on a TSV running LineageOS 15.1.

For probably un-related context, I'm using this satellite as a ViewAssist device, running @left lark's Remote Assist Display..

Is it something Wireguard or Tailscale could solve maybe?

I'm hoping to avoid adding a VPN, given Nabu Casa's Home Assistant Cloud. That would likely work, but I'm really looking for a native solution. Worst case, I'll go that route, but would really prefer not to.

ha cloud is for accessing the webui. for something like this you will need to use a VPN.

The satellite does seem to be communicating with HA via the Cloud instance, though. It seems to attempt to connect to Wyoming integration and fail upon not finding a device registered under the given wyoming-name.

Probably it's two-way communication? And while connection satellite -> server will work, the connections initiated from server won't?

[toxic wraith]

it won't work without a VPN - the event forwarder I've got will push over basically anything because that uses the HA HTTP API (and is therefore separate), but you can't test that without Home Assistant making a connection to Wyoming first

Ok, so could this work if the initial Wyoming establishment is done in a local context or over a VPN connection?

That is, once the Wyoming entity is created, could future communication be done without the VPN through your work?

Given that OWW and recording audio of the subsequent voice command are handled on device, couldn’t the audio chunks then be passed on through the API, or websocket APi?

[sturdy pine]

The events of the protocol are asynchronous, so server should have a way to "call" satellite.

[quick hatch]

Yes.
