Hi All, I cannot keep the connection stable to my pi. I put HAOS on a pi5 and I managed to get logged in on the app eventually and everytime I leave and come back it cannot reconnect.

It says it needs to refresh external IP but I only use it locally so I cant see why it would need this and I have location access allowed so it should know I am home.

I am also attempting to access on local IP 8321 and failing.

    It is set on wifi, trying to access by android app. When that fails I try mobile browsers but it has mostly been the same issue.

    I am not knowledgeable on cli but I am trying and learning so I can get there but its trial and plenty of errors without much understanding of the logic.

    All local no other networks nearby.

      Ok, next check your wifi signal strength is ok.

      If you have a laptop / PC open the cli and use ping with the Pi’s IP address.

      If not, get a ping app on your phone (I used vernet from Fdroid), check the settings have a really high number of pings (ie 60) and ping your Pi…

      If the ping times out or the response times are all over the place with , then it’s either your wifi or something else on the Pi / phone.

      I presume your only running home assistant on that Pi, nothing else?
