        @Stoffbeuteluwe so, can u go to one device and get its IP address somehow? so we can see if its on the same network address range…

        also wonder if the code works on Mac… open the developers window and look at the console…
        but u said it worked once…

        maybe you can look in your router dhcp clients page

                @Stoffbeuteluwe said in MMM-Alexaonoff can’t find devices:

                FauxMo service started. Listening on 192.168.178.35:21900-21941

                means the code in the module has setup to listen on a number of known ports that the Wemo plugs use for discovery by the alexa plugin.

                when alexa does home automation device discovery, it sends a broadcast message ('is anyone there?) to anything listening on those ports, and whatever is listening will respond with a predefined response (‘yes, I am here’)…

                the discovery code for wemo plugs was built into alexa early code… but seems that Alexa has removed that code and expects a plugin to do the work… (My opinion)

                a google search on ‘wemo app not finding devices’ produces a lot of info. I could never get alexa to discover my mirrors
