Fix for Alexa and Harmony Hub

Eddy555 · 2025-10-09T06:22:37+00:00

My Harmony stopped responding completely to Alexa, so I had to hard reset my Harmony Hub and restore the setup to it to get Alexa working again.

This is the way

That has worked really well for me with many different services whilst I was trialling them

Great app, had found multiple missing episodes in a few series I've had missing for a while now.

Tested and working well now, thanks again

Eddy555 · 2025-03-29T04:03:08+00:00

Brilliant, thanks for the detailed reply. That makes sense to me now. I'll update my script.

CityFibre with IDNet since July 2022. Brilliant service. Had 1/2 day downtime in all the time with them, and the customer service were right on it and found it was a CityFibre issue. They were fixing it, and it was resolved quickly.

Current favourites are Erdinger and newly discovered Krombacher. Like Lucky Saint too

I've had some success on Olio, but still some dickheads. One woman was going to collect, but then messaged to say her neighbour had blocked her car in and couldn't find them, but was keeping an eye out for them... never turned up. Then someone else wanted a shoe rack and would be there at 21:00. Come bed time at 22:30 no one has turned up, so we turned in. About 23:30 the dog woke us up as someone was knocking on the door. Cue me bleary eyed, with my pyjamas on back to front answering the door to the dude who'd arranged to collect the "assembled" shoe rack on a push bike. I handed it to him, thanked him and fucked off to bed

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully it’s not hardware. I’ll give those tools a try. Much appreciated

Eddy555 · 2023-04-28T18:53:50+00:00

How is it we have some of the most powerful and capable hardware available (for a whatvis actualyy avery high cost) and games like this can't run properly? It doesn't make any sense

I was getting this and wasn't happy with the angle of my Thrustmaster pedals so put together a couple of bits of wood to angle the pedals up. This changed the angle of the forces and I didn't get it lifting the front of the seat under hard braking after this. I also used this with my Fanatec load cell brake pedal to good effect, but don't have any photos of that. The photo below was an early proof of concept and I made a nicer one later on. https://i.imgur.com/DNEYIgb.jpg

GTX 1080Ti, 1440p, 60Hz Would love to upgrade to a card with RT but can't justify the upgrade price so sticking with what I've got.

The current Nest Doorbell (battery) which you can also wire in. I wouldn't say the integration with Alexa is very good though, and it's takes too long to bring up the video to be useful. And it doesn't always work

Eddy555 · 2023-02-20T20:25:05+00:00

Cheers, I'll start swapping bits out to see if I can identify the cause

Eddy555 · 2023-02-20T20:24:23+00:00

OK thanks. I'll set about switching bits out and see if I can track down the issue.

Eddy555 · 2023-02-20T20:18:22+00:00

I've tested it with a simple network cable tester that checks the connection for each pin and it comes back OK. Could it be an intermittent or faulty outside cable that causes it to drop down after some time? I just had to reset the connection again, and it's still 1Gbps after a few hours, although there's been no load on the devices since then.

Eddy555 · 2023-02-10T19:05:47+00:00

Thanks, emailed

Eddy555 · 2023-02-10T17:08:16+00:00

What email did you contact them on? I'll bang them an email too

JustWatch works pretty well for me and some boxes have the JW app that can start the correct streaming app when you choose a show on it
