The issue was that even though everything looked fine on the Mac, very frequently, the homebridge devices would show up on the phone as Not Responding. I've done so many different things to debug this, that I'd really almost given up on using homebridge. \r\n\r\nSeeing everyone else's success however, spurred me into action. I did some more digging, and it appears that my ISP Router (BT HomeHub 5) has very wide-spread issues with Bonjour (mDNS). Recommendations were to switch/rename off the 2.4GHz network, and try to get all devices routing through the same 5GHz Radio. The problem with that, was that my Mac Mini was wired, so there was no way to tell Homebridge to only use the WiFi connection to serve the bonjour connection, and not the wired connection.\r\n\r\nI finally identified this as a common issue, because I also installed an Airport Express in my home, which would lose discovery almost daily.\r\n\r\nI took the nuclear option. I went out and bought a second hand Airport Extreme WiFi router from eBay. Wired everything up to go through it, and now not only has my airport express not lost connection, but my Homebridge hasn't once been unreachable.\r\n\r\nin Summary, if you're having issues with homebridge devices showing up as \"Not Responding,\" it may be an issue with your ISP's WiFi router."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/nfarina/homebridge/issues/comments/255233312","html_url":"https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge/issues/862#issuecomment-255233312","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/nfarina/homebridge/issues/862","id":255233312,"user":{"login":"Samfox2","id":11883712,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/11883712?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2","html_url":"https://github.com/Samfox2","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Samfox2/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-10-20T21:27:21Z","updated_at":"2016-10-20T21:27:21Z","body":"@kwithus thats exactly the same behaviour that my homebridge shows."}}
