Arrived today, plugged it in. Is something supposed to happen? Blue led pulses slowly. If I turn it sideways, it pulses rapidly, so I guess it doesn't like that.

Tried default out of the box firmware AND zbt2_zigbee_ncp_7.4.4.5.gbl AND the default thread version installed via https://toolbox.openhomefoundation.org/home-assistant-connect-zbt-2/install/.

Tried usb 3 and usb 2 on the raspberry pi, both didn't work. Device is detected on mac os though for firmware flashing purposes.

Home assistant runs in a VM on proxmox if that matters.

No idea what else I'm supposed to do...

Install Firmware – Device Toolbox

Install the latest Zigbee or Thread firmware on your ZBT-2

please use the usb2.0 port only, and use extension cable

#

if running haos as vm, why connect it to pi?

Is the device forwarded to the VM in Proxmox?
And try a different USB cable to rule that out.
