Can't get Matter devices to work on Homekit - going insane!

Hi everyone! I have a HomeKit based home with a Ubiquiti backbone: ISP ONT -> UX7 -> USW Ultra. I consider myself an amateur but god have I tried everything to make it work. Your help would be much, much appreciated.

Pretty much the title - regular stuff connects fine, Matter based devices get an instant "pairing failed" error. I have Aqara hardware: a G5 camera hub (PoE version, which is also a Matter hub) and a Door/window sensor.

As soon as I try to pair the camera hub via Matter to Apple Home in the Aqara app it fails instantly, per the screenshots.

My current VLAN setup is main network for my devices (that's where the Apple TV is) and the IoT VLAN (where the G5 camera is). I have IPv6 enabled, VLANs can talk to each other.

IMHO the systems can see each other as per the 3rd screenshot (Home app can see the hub) but I get the same error in the screenshot, just coming from the Home app and not the Aqara app.

Everything is updated to the latest version; Apple TV is on tvOS 26 not 27.

I'm hoping some of you have the same Ubiquiti/Homekit/Aqara Matter devices and hope to tell me wth am I doing wrong! Let me know if you need additional info to help me on this and thanks so much in advance!

Obras no andar de baixo - remoção de vigas?

O apartamento por baixo do meu está a ser remodelado e pela quantidade de martelo pneumático e origem do som estou com receio que estejam a remover as vigas de suporte que dividem a cozinha da marquise. Não quero entrar pela casa dentro mas também não quero ficar a pensar nisto. Com quem se fala para isto ser verfificado?

Any idea on what this traffic might be?

I only use this Apple TV as HomeKit hub. What is all this to Apple.com? 15Gb in less than a day?

Jogo bué antigo cujo nome não me lembro

Oi malta! A minha vez de tentar caçar um jogo do qual me lembro muito pouco mas que me lembro de gostar. E ainda por cima tão simples: era um controlador de trafego aéreo. Lembro-me de dar comandos por texto do género "avião X aterra pista Y". Tínhamos que sacar/imprimir os aeroportos para saber que pistas e que orientações tinham os aeroportos.

Não parece ser este:

Nem este:

Acho que era da época win95. Caramba... será que a memória me atraiçoa?

App forgot room names?

Pretty much what the title says. All of a sudden the room names are not those I assigned, but rather seems to be an internal string for a custom name. anyone with the same experience? My app version is 2.6.0 and the firmware version is 4.3.9_1636

IGMP snooping querier selection greyed and locked to "3rd party switch" with a UX7 and USW-Ultra?

Hi! pretty much the title. IGMP snooping is on but querier selection is unavailable, "3rd party" being the active and locked option. Shouldn't it be by UX7 or the USW-Ultra?
(In the process or understanding with my Homekit setup is being such a PITA)

Thanks in advance!

L10S ultra Gen 2 dock deep(er) cleaning?

hi! three humans and five pets here. As you can imagine pretty much every day and mop some areas of the house every other day. these last few weeks I’ve been getting more and more frequent “water in the washboard” notifications/errors. I’ve cleaned the washboard and the place where it sits a couple of times now, but I’m wondering if there’s some other area in the pumping system or in the nozzles or whatever that you guys have had to clean as well or something. Just looking for your experience on this. Thanks in advance!

Quem domina: a Fauna ou a Flora?

Estava a apanhar ameixas no quintal e dei por mim a pensar:
Sou eu - animal, especificamente humano - que domino a árvore e a plantei para que ela me dê alimento e me sirva, ou
É a árvore, que arranjou ao longo dos milénios uns parvalhões que se mexem terra fora para cuidar delas e dos bebés delas para todo o sempre em troca de comer o açúcar/nutrientes em volta da semente delas?

Is this correct?

Hi everyone!I have a G5 Pro Hub PoE and I'm wondering if this is the right configuration. The camera itself is working but I'm having some trouble with a P2 door window sensor (which isn't an easy accessory on its own but I digress).
Why can't I bind the camera hub to Homekit? Shouldn't it be there?

“When the last person leaves home”

I have this condition for a couple of automations and it prompts me to random them, even though my girlfriend, which is registered as owner in this home, is in the house. So clearly not the last one leaving home. What is causing the system not to detect her in the house? Thanks in advance!

Can’t remove accessory

Hi everyone! I have a Aqara temperature/humidity sensor that was rather difficult to add to my home. It was added via a Aqara G5 camera hub. Somehow it was added twice - I 2 different readings from the same sensor (which I can place in different rooms for example, but they have the same serial number). But I check each one’s settings and there’s no remove accessory button to be found.
Also, could this be the reason why I can’t add it to the summary? I have other temps there but that one doesn’t show up at all.

Thanks in advance!

Unifi can't draw proper topology

Hi everyone!
The top of my topology tree never looks as it should and it keeps bouncing from one of these to the other one. I don't get it :/ Everything is properly connected: ISP ONT -> Express 7 -> USW Ultra -> U6 IW. It keeps messing up the topology like this, alternating every 2 minutes or so and never getting the topology right.

Anyone else? Not exactly a dealbreaker but the OCD inside me is starting to drive me insane.

Thanks in advance!

How do I get this screen?? Driving me nuts

Hi everyone! I just can’t get it, slightly going insane here. If I tap the blind it starts opening or closing. If I long press it I get that context menu. How do I consistently get this slider screen so I can choose how much to open/close?

Thanks in advance!
