              @Stoffbeuteluwe Really appreciate the post! Everything appears to be working properly, but Alexa still does not detect my mirror. I have the 1st Gen Alexa, so its possible that is my issue. Thanks for all your help!

                  @Stoffbeuteluwe Thanks for posting your config settings! Everytime I enable the AlexaControl Module My DarkSkyWeather Forecase, Lunartic, and US Holidays dont load. They just indicate “Loading”. When I pull the AlexaControl section out of the config.js they load without issue.

                            @Fozi Yes, literally just the new dot. But I had literally had the first Alexa that came out a few years ago, so it might of had some issues.

                              @techcoderun That’s interesting. I am somewhat buffeled because even with the a the mirror isn’t detected.

                                @Fozi Agreed, no clue what fixed the problem. I tried @Stoffbeuteluwe’s config file with the old Alexa, no luck. I received my Dot a few hours later, plugged it in, and voilà, “I’ve discovered 18 new devices.” My guess is maybe some outdated WiFi related hardware on the 1st Gen Alexa?

                                  @techcoderun As the cyberweek on Amazon comes closer and I need another Dot anyways, I‘m curious if I’ lol succeed, too.

                                    Suddenly my MM got detected on with my old Echo Dot Gen. 1 and without the installation of the other modules. I can‘t say why. Alexas feedback after scanning for new devices was misleading, too. She answers that no new devices were detected, but I found four new devices in the device list. Anyways, it seems to work and now I‘m thinking about a fitting use case for my needs.

                                      Hmm, Perhaps I need to revisit this module?
