Hello everyone, I’m sharing here my experience with a Sonoff dongle; there are two: ZBDongle-E and ZBDongle-P. Personally I own the -E version and I had this kind of issue — here is the solution that worked for me on Raspberry 3B+. > [@ZigBee2mqtt HS depuis longtemps](https://community.gladysassistant.com/t/zigbee2mqtt-hs-depuis-longtemps/7427/23?u=gaelbillon): > > Pour info cela pourra peut-être en aider d’autre, j’ai enfin réussi à couplé mon Dongle, j’ai suivi ceci : [Supported Adapters | Zigbee2MQTT](https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/adapters/#experimental) fait un restart du Docker : docker logs gladys-z2m-zigbee2mqtt et éteint et redémarré mon Pi Merci encore je vais pouvoir continuer les tests. ---

I personally tend to think that Zigbee dongles can be quite finicky (that’s also why on the project’s website there’s a list of recommended dongles). I used one that worked very well for several months, then, for a reason I can’t figure out, it stopped working. I admit I didn’t spend ages investigating; I changed the dongle for a very high-performance (and very expensive) one and I’m more than satisfied with it! I wouldn’t be surprised if SONOFF dongles, even if they « work », aren’t the most stable with an RPi. ---

But… you’re welcome! 🙂 Yes, they were ranked 2nd in a 2021 test [https://toptech-avis.fr/meilleur-mini-pc-2021/](https://toptech-avis.fr/meilleur-mini-pc-2021/) — plus they’re fanless and offer performance more than sufficient to install Debian plus Gladys, and for a price more than fair compared to the equivalent Raspberry Pi!!! The audio is well recognized and to then hook it up to a small touchscreen it’s for me a good solution — the only thing missing will be voice recognition, but by adding Docker and Node-RED well it’s fully open in terms of solutions 😉! I even bought some on sale on Cdiscount for €65 a year ago! 🤑 ---

Curious, to test I removed my ConBee II key which works very well on my other Beelink BT3 Pro2 Jeedom setup, so if I refresh the key in the interface it is seen but still the same: no MQTT link to Zigbee and in the configuration.yaml file the « port » parameter of the « serial » section is « /dev/serial/ttyUSB0 » after a reboot this becomes « /dev/serial/ttyACM0 » so the parameter doesn’t change when you enable/disable the services via the dashboard / integration/ zigbee2mqtt (by the way why is stopping the MQTT docker tied to that of zigbee2mqtt? I understand starting it, but not stopping!) ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/ returns: usb-dresden\_elektronik\_ingenieurtechnik\_GmbH\_ConBee\_II\_DE2665658-if00 → ../../ttyACM0 and still the same so honestly I don’t understand that the keys are detected but the zigbee2mqtt container keeps rebooting (every 30s) I also did a docker stop and then a docker rm of the mosquitto and zigbee containers and then restarted Gladys ---

@guim31 I made some [DIY](https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/advanced/zigbee/05_create_a_cc2530_router.html) routers that I installed in old powerline adapter enclosures.

I wouldn’t try it — it’s about changing the distribution version, and at that level I think it’s more for Pierre-Gilles to handle. Well, I’m still at 97%; I think I’m going to have an issue. Edit: Manual reboot of the Pi — everything installed fine, I had probably lost the SSH connection. ---

> [@Phil](#): > > sudo apt dist-upgrade @bjm is right, no dist-upgrade. Especially when a new version has just been released. On the Raspbian images **security updates** are **automatic**. You can do a regular upgrade of the packages but don’t forget that it’s your home automation, so if a package fails or the kernel is unstable — Hasta la vista, the connected house. (generally it’s not blocking but it’s a pain 😅) And rebooting is only necessary in case of a kernel update. ---

@pierre-gilles Crazy thing, I plug in a 2nd Sonoff key and reassign in Gladys to the 2nd then the 1st and I don’t know why that must have changed something in the zigbee2mqtt container because since then the connection is made even after removing the 2nd key. However in Gladys removing the 1st key afterwards does not change the container’s state in Gladys even though a docker ps -a shows it as exited 🤔 — remains to be seen how long it will keep running? So this is indeed a problem with the zigbee2mqtt container more than anything else, even if Gladys should improve container management (reflect the state even though we have it in System: stop, start, restart, remove, remove image, reload image) — why not integrate it into the Settings section above System? Well, since my Raspberry’s SD card burned out I can’t run the test but I’ll try as soon as possible! ![image](https://gladys-assistant-community.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/2X/6/605fe8ea6c983fba1160b49be105dc6cb144cb10.png) ---

I agree that the Z2M integration in Gladys has trouble with state changes and that it could use some improvement! 🙂 But as you say, that’s not the core of the problem here — there’s clearly another issue coming from Z2M itself.
