    Insteon 2012 Hub Not Found By Android App

    Currently, I am using a custom component that controls OpenHAB which directly controls my Insteon 2012 Hub.   https://community.home-assistant.io/t/problem-with-insteon/2301/7?u=graysonpeddie   My Insteon Hub is in my same Wi-Fi network as my smartphone. My server (192.168.0.2) assigns...

    LIFX And Spotty Internet Connection

    Ugh! My first post has been turned into HTML... What's going on? Why a bunch of DIV elements instead of a paragraph tag?   Update: Oh, no... Part of my post is gone again... Reposting...   Update 2: Ah... I did not paste my backup text in my text editor. I think I came across a bug in the forum...

    LIFX And Spotty Internet Connection

    Hi you guys. I currently use Home Assistant which has a LIFX component and I've had trouble with my LIFX White 800 light bulbs not being instructed to turn on and off at a certain time.   Here's the group:     Bedroom_Lamps:   name: Bedroom Lamps   entities:     - light.bedroom_lamp_left     -...

    Philips Hue Gen 1 vs Gen 2: Worth the Upgrade For Home Assistant/OpenHAB?

    Please pardon me if this question has already been asked before, but for those who use Home Assistant (including me and I'm enjoying it so far except for the lack of grouped brightness/color control) or OpenHAB, is the 2nd gen square-shaped bridge worth the upgrade over the version 1 bridge? I...

    Linux Home Server as an IoT Gateway

    First off, I don't know where to post, so if moderators could move my thread to where it's appropriate, I'd appreciate that. Anyway...   Protocols, protocols, protocols... Weave, SmartThings, AllJoyn...   With a lot of companies backing up different IoT protocols, is it possible for my Linux...

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    I really don't think there's an Orange Pi for $15 in Amazon.com, so I think I will go with these:   Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Raspbee Premium - ZigBee Addon For Raspberry Pi with Firmware   I'm unsure which ZigBee devices are compatible other than Philips Hue, be it tap switches, motion sensors...

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    I will look into Raspberry Pi and Zigbee. Thanks.   As for my previous post about REST API, I got way too excited over it since I wanted to have Insteon Hub push data to my server without half-second polling; thus, WebSockets come into play. But reading through a thread about Philips Hue and...

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    Is there still an NDA for Insteon?   Update: I've done some research in the Internet and there's REST API. Well, too bad I've gotten rid of my INSTEON modules, but I suppose I will buy a couple of new modules.   Thanks for letting me know.

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    I've looked into the links you've provided and they are more of a software side and not hardware, such as INSTEON (proprietary) and Z-Wave (proprietary).   With INSTEON, I don't want to pay $99 just to gain access to API documentation. The SDK for Z-Wave cost way too much.   (Ugh... Thank you...

    HA Technology Comparison Spreadsheet

    Hi, everyone. I would like to make a feature request. Can a category be added whatever the technology is open-source or not and whether the API (Application Programming interface) is free or not?   I do have Philips Hue. The API is free, but I have to log in to the developer site to be able to...

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    Thanks for your reply. I did come across the thread years ago, but when I looked through it today, it does not tell me if some of the technologies are open-source friendly or not. This is critical for me because I would like to be able to let my server control home automation. Previously before...

    Open Source "Roll-Your-Own Cloud" Home Automation Solutions

    Hey you guys. It's been a while since I've been in CocoonTech since I no longer have interest in home automation until late last year when I purchased Philips Hue Starter Kit since I'm interested in doing programming from my server. I have created a web application once that gets the light...

    Elk Rules Programming Example Database

      No offense, but It would be great if you don't resurrect threads that are very old, since it's better to start a new thread instead. I say this because I was a little surprised to see this thread resurrected.

    Any open-source projects that use Insteon?

      No mentioning of open source in that website, but I did see a support for Philips Hue integration. With Philips Hue API, I can see myself developing my own Linux application that communicates via URL using cURL, which is very cool, so I'm planning to move away from Insteon with the...

    FILL_THIS_FORM_FRAUD_PHISH: No DKIM or SPF?

    My Postfix server discards fraudulent e-mail when it comes to phishing attacks and Nigeria spammers and the password recovery e-mail got caught and labeled by SpamAssassin which gets discarded. I've had to go into my Postfix server and comment out: /FRAUD/ DISCARD in...
