Passthrough of Phoscon ConBee II The universal Zigbee USB gateway to Home Assistant Virtual Machine


Recommended Posts

I have been trying to get this to work, but I am having issues,

 

so far I have taken it out of the box,

I have powered down my VM Home Assistant

and added a USB extension cable and then plug it into a USB 2 or 3 ports

then I when into my VM Config and choose the USB ConBee Device

then I powered up my VM Home Assistant -

once my HA was powerd up I when and click on my ZigBee device and got the following message

and I waited for about 30 seconds and then I got this message

I have google the error and it talks about up updating the firmware, but before I go down that route, I want to make sure that so far, I have done everything right.

 

is there anything I have missed ?

ok I got it to work in the end,  after following the steps here I ended up reverting to a older version of Unraid. 6.9 - which then allows me to plug and play my Zigbee device and my VM Home Assistant saw it and configured it straight away

 

NOTE: I had to recreate my Home Assistant VM and also some of my dockers like PLEX had to be created.
