Upgrade worked fine for me.

Super small request; when editing a Network Device, the "Device Type" drop-down isn't in any kind of order I can recognize.  Would it be possible to have that sorted into alphabetical order?  (It also never seems to finish "Identifying..." but I don't know if I'm just being impatient.)

Smooth upgrade.  Was the 2.4Ghz connection dropping / freeze resolved in this update?

@Ashok - You might want to get this page updated as well. My almond told me there was a new firmware update on WebUI and when I clicked on that, it took me to this page - https://www.securifi.com/software-update that still have R089 in there

Any chance that this got fixed in R090?

Access Point doesn't work with Enable Wireless Client Isolation (https://forum.securifi.com/index.php/topic,5222.0.html)

Seems to be a bug in the Z-wave config ui (LCD). When filling out the z-wave device config form, the final "value" field can't be filled, it just fill the "parameter" field instead.

Yes and it will be resolved with our next release.
Title: Weather doesn't auto-update
Post by: jwh7 on January 05, 2017, 12:48:00 pm
The Weather display seems to never auto-update; I have to manually refresh.  I've rebooted twice to retest it, no help.  While I'm here...
It would be really nice for the Time and Weather to be integrated, like in an Extras section, where one can select which (or both) to display, and which is on top, for example, and the text size for each.  Never made sense to me that you couldn't have -both- the time and weather displayed.

Just like every other firmware, things break.  5ghz network has no connectivity, DNS resolution fails on it.  Rolled back to 89.  This router is pretty much dated garbage at this point, it looks nice but doesn't work as a router at all.  The last one I had burned up due to overheating on the wireless.

I have the same issue as a couple of other people.  After the upgrade on Tuesday night I thought that the 5ghz network was available but I noticed today that it was missing?  I tried to reboot the Almond+ but that didn't work.

I also have a similar issue with the weather it updates but seems like the refresh of the application is not updating like it used to.  It refreshes but have no idea what the refresh cycle is on the application at this point?

What concerns me is even after rolling back I still have packet loss on my 5ghz network.  I actually have a 350Mbps downstream from my provider, so using 5ghz would be nice.......  But alas, it doesn't work as well, sometimes drops and on the r90 didnt work at all.  Below is a ping test, latency jumps then packet loss.  I am sure it is not my adapter or drivers as it occurs on multiple platforms with varying manufacturers.  I should also note, I have about 20+ wireless clients constantly in my household.

Updated to R090. Totally painless. Everything is working great. Running AP and a dozen HA devices.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 07, 2017, 06:08:18 pm
After a couple of reboots the 5.0ghz network reappeared on the Almond+.  I had to re-setup the network credentials and now everything is working again and I can see and surf with the 5.0ghz network.

Another thing I am noticing is that a couple of my smart bulbs are acting funny and are not turning on or off with my rules? I am sure removing and adding them back will fix the issue. Only a couple of my smart bulbs have this issue all my other sensors are working great. 

As for the Weather, it's not updating at all? Not that it's a big deal but it was cool feature I was checking out.

Everyone should hold off on upgrading to R090

+1 on the death of 5 GHz wifi after upgrading to R090

I have since downgraded back to 89 just now and 5 GHz is still not functional.  All my devices see it as being able to connect, it just does not allow any data transmission, iPad says "Not Connected to the Internet," when connected to the 5 GHz band.  2.4 GHz still works as normal, fortunately.

@ All,

Could someone please provide a bit more information which mode we are using the Almond+, wanted to check, if this is something specific to one mode and also could we try a factory reset if possible. Thank you!

Both 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi are working for me after the R090 update. I have my tablet and Chromcast on 5 GHz working fine.

EDIT: Working as a router and not AP.

My Almond+ is operating as a router with R090, both 2.4ghz and 5ghz without problem.

@Ashok

I have not done a  factory reset yet but wanted to give a little bit of info you asked for.

I am using my Almond+ as a range extender. Another thing, I also see the 5.0 ghz disappear from my Android Almond application as well in the active network devices area. Not too sure if that tells you anything but when I get home this evening I will do a factory reset to see if I see a difference.

Thanks...

This may seem unnecessary but are we within range of the 5 network? It is not as far as the 2.4. Were these devices that aren't seeing the 5 network able to see it from the same locations before the update?
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 11, 2017, 04:17:09 pm
@mparadis

My Almond+ is maybe less than 20 feet away from my main router so distance shouldn't be an issue for the 5ghz to connect. Also, yes the 5ghz network worked on R089 and I never seen it disappear from my Almond app like it does now. I also never had an issue connecting devices to the 5ghz network as well.

I will update when I factory reset the Almond+.

@Ashok

I reset the Almond+ and everything seems to be working correctly. I haven't tested everything but If I see it acting up again I will be sure to post about it here.

I have to say that it was a pretty quick restore process.  I am now more confident that I can get back all my settings, rules, devices and configurations back with the backup and restore settings area.  This was the first time I reset the device.  Pretty slick.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 13, 2017, 10:33:57 am
I don't see the disconnects like I did before the reset with the 5ghz network. I think I am good now. 

The Weather is still not working at all unless you manually go refresh it on the unit itself.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 13, 2017, 10:53:46 am
But I do have another issue and it was like this on the previous firmware.  Not sure if this should be here or in a another location but it's an issue.

The issue I am having is:

If I trigger a device to do something when my phone connects to wifi - this action works great

If I trigger a device to do something when my phone disconnects my wifi - this action never works (it will but not when it actually disconnects)

This issue is that the Almond+ hangs on to my disconnected wifi connection forever even though I have been disconnected for sometime. It doesn't matter if my iPad, Samsung tablet or phone or even my laptop all of them will show in my app as connected even though I am disconnected? Shouldn't the application know you just disconnected or the Almond+? I have even shut my phone off to see if I could get the Almond+ to show disconnected? No go! Why have this feature if it doesn't work correctly? Am I missing something here?

It will eventually show disconnected but takes forever to get to this point. Unreliable for a trigger.

If someone has a fix I am all ears.

There is a setting that you can adjust for each network device called "Inactive grace period" that you can adjust from within the app (and WebUI I believe) that will "tell" the A+ that that device has disconnected after that many minutes. The reason for the grace period is to limit devices from reporting as disconnecting and reconnecting constantly as they shut off wifi to conserve battery.

I presume this is your issue.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 13, 2017, 11:43:02 am
Yes. Exactly. I knew someone had an answer but searched the site but didn't see that in any post.

Thanks for the information. I just tried you suggestion with putting a minute into that location and it still doesn't disconnect my phone from the Almond+?

Kinda new to all of this HA stuff so I do a lot of searching and asking questions. 

Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 13, 2017, 12:01:31 pm
You know what maybe we are talking about something different here?

Even though my phone is disconnected, the almond shows connected.  The rule will run just fine but the router should be a little bit more proactive and verify if a connection is still active. It remains active for minutes after disconnect.

So, moving it to a minute just shut my device off in about 7 minutes. ( it would't take 0 but it's a lot better than 12 to 15 minutes on 6)  I was thinking it should be a little faster than that.  I think it's an Almond router issue not recognizing that a device like a WiFi phone disconnects. I think it's a reporting issue somewhere?

So, if anyone would want to experiment with this here is the scenario:

Create a rule to turn on a light when your phone connects to the Almond+.
Create another rule to turn the light off when your phone disconnects.

What are your observations after you have turned off WiFi on your phone and are on cellular?  With a 1 as the inactive grace period. How long does it take to show your phone disconnected in the application or website so the rule will trigger?  I am curious? I have only had the device for a month so I am new to this.

Thanks for the help.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: mparadis on January 13, 2017, 04:33:21 pm
There is a "grace period" you can set it in the app under the network device you want to adjust. Default should be 6 minutes.
Title: Re: Any feedback related to Almond+ Firmware R090
Post by: Frozen on January 13, 2017, 05:26:55 pm
@mparadis

Yes I understood what you were saying and I set the "grace period" to 1 in the device area of the app. (In the "active/inactive network devices" area is where my phone shows up and that I am trying to use as my trigger and changed the "grace period" to 1.)   That should be 1 minute. I get that and thank you for showing me this setting. Unless that's not the setting (the "grace period" in the device you want as a trigger)

Maybe I am not explaining myself correctly.

The Almond+ doesn't release my disconnected WiFi (phone) device (It thinks I am connected when I am not).  Once the Almond releases my Wifi connection after about 5 or so minutes then the "grace period" (set at 1) probably runs as well.  That's 7 minutes until something will happen.  What ever trigger it might be.

I really appreciate your help but I am talking about the Almond thinking that my device is still connected and showing green in my application as an "Active network device".  I am totally disconnected like I stated above and turned off. The Almond will eventually disconnect the device and show as an "Inactive network device" but that's after 5+ minutes of the device being off. I think that the "grace period" is working correctly at 1 minute but I am waiting for my device to show as an "Inactive network device" in the application so it will start my 1 minute. That's where I get around 7 minutes to trigger not from the "grace period"

Also, changing the "grace period" to a 1 did help. From 12 minutes until trigger and now it's about 7.

Unless this normal behavior I don't see how you can use a phone's WiFi connection as a reliable trigger? When you connect to Wifi "yes" but not when you are leaving the network.

Again thanks for the help.

Update performed, no regression observed so far (5GHz network working nominally). No factory reset performed. All rules and scenes working. FTP server working. Using A+ in Router mode.

Only seem to have an issue with one of the sensors (smoke detector), I'll try to remove and add it again.

So far, looks good.

I ran into an issue where my custom dynamic dns settings were partially overwritten. By partial I mean the service record that resides within /etc/config/ddns was still there, but the corresponding line within /usr/lib/ddns/services (actually, what looks to be the entire file) was overwritten with the update. I get that direct modifications to certain files is probably not something that is protected when an update occurs, but the comments in those config files do say they can be edited to add additional ddns providers/services so it's a little misleading if they are going to be overwritten.

On the plus side I have a device (smart scale) on the 2.4GHz band that had been having pretty consistent connectivity issues and those seem to be much better after the update. Not entirely sure what changed that could be helping but hey, I'll take the win for now.

My issue with the new firmware is getting frustrating. I have some rules for some porch lights on/off. They have always worked perfectly, until the new release. Now they turn on/off maybe half the time. When I check the status on the phone app, it shows what its supposed to be, but the rule didn't actually work. When I login to the Almond from my computer and try to turn the device on or off, it freezes up the computer every time. It also seems like the range for my z-wave devices is almost nonexistent now with communicating with the Almond.

Looks like the IPsec VPN server is still broken.  My iPhone tries to connect, then gives me an error: "The VPN Server did not respond"

Tested with iOS 10.2 on Verizon in the US.  Interestingly enough, my phone reports an IPv6 address from "whatismyip.com".  The system log reports a number of messages and errors that are IPsec or VPN related.   How can I submit it to you?

FWIW, I've replaced the WifI functionality of the A+ with a Luma mesh system. I'm sticking with A+ for home automation for now, but this is frustrating. Most of all, the response from support. This is a common issue as witnessed by reading the forums. When I dealt with support, it was as if no one had ever reported Wifi troubles before.

2 whole days on Luma with zero WiFi stalls. Uh-mazing.

I just updated a few days go and since then I've had a couple of big problems.

1> Came home yesterday to no internet in the house, even though I could access the gui on the almond+.   

Resetting cable modem did not fix problem, resetting A+ did.

2> Last night and today while playing online (PS4 wired connection) I keep getting kicked out of games.

At the same time I'm dropped from the game all browser activity halts (testing with streaming video) for a long enough time that playback ends.


The only other thing that may have changed is earler this week I added an ha-bridge instance to my network (philips hue emulator so I can control unsupported devices from my echo) so I'm seeing a lot of IGMP traffic on the router logs

I've also noticed that while this traffic is being logged the PHY goes down and back up again:

Just like every other firmware, things break.  5ghz network has no connectivity, DNS resolution fails on it.  Rolled back to 89.  This router is pretty much dated garbage at this point, it looks nice but doesn't work as a router at all.  The last one I had burned up due to overheating on the wireless.

My 5Ghz network works fine after the update FYI.

Looks like the IPsec VPN server is still broken.  My iPhone tries to connect, then gives me an error: "The VPN Server did not respond"

Tested with iOS 10.2 on Verizon in the US.  Interestingly enough, my phone reports an IPv6 address from "whatismyip.com".  The system log reports a number of messages and errors that are IPsec or VPN related.   How can I submit it to you?
@Ashok Is there any news on this? I'm trying to set up my home VPN now and I'm running into this issue as well. Getting unsuccessful connection attempts when I try to connect from OSX as well as when trying to connect from my Android phone.

I have been experiencing internet connectivity issues, starting on Saturday.  A restart of the Almond usually fixes the issue, some times it takes a couple reboots.  This has occurred 4 or 5 times since Saturday.

I also lost connection to my USB attached storage a short time after the update.  A reboot rectified that connection.

Weather location is now wrong.  I have the temperature always on and has been correct until the firmware update that I did this week.
