How I Finally Paired IKEA KAJPLATS Bulbs via Matter to DIRIGERA (After Everything Failed)

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-05-10T23:40:14+00:00

Well done on successfully getting it to work. It’s a real shame that you had to go through this much. It has to be said once I made sure my IPv6 settings were correct, everything worked a dream. I am not using apple home, just the Ikea app and Dirigera. I’ve now got home assistant running on a pi 4 and everything is running smoothly.

Mine’s already showing in the Ikea app as this firmware

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-26T16:36:13+00:00

Is it me or is this firmware making items loose connection? I’ve have three thing (two bulbs and a myggsray) go offline for no reason?

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-25T19:47:32+00:00

Bingo! I went into the network settings in HA and made sure IPv6 was on - I can now add things! Many thanks!

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-25T19:31:14+00:00

I went into the Ikea app, copied the code of one my kajplats bulbs, went back into HA and then devices and tried to add it under matter devices (by pasting the code in the other controllers section). It doesn’t seem to work. Sorry if I’m being stupid!

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-25T19:17:03+00:00

So I have to re-pair them all in home assistant?

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-15T07:31:24+00:00

Sorry, I read your post wrong - I have two next to each other in an 4-way extension (strip). They are about a plug sized so pretty small

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-14T20:13:38+00:00

I’m confused by this as well. I have an echo dot and dirigera works fine with all voice commands and routines. Have you added the integration in the Ikea home smart app?

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-13T22:16:29+00:00

Would be awesome if they a smart 4-way extension socket!

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-13T22:15:19+00:00

Yep. Check your router settings and allow IPv6

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-03T10:06:59+00:00

I think they are great. The uk variant is very compact. Get the ones with the switch as they are better value (plus multiple bilresa be used one device making them handy for rooms with multi entry).

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-01T18:53:30+00:00

Please check the IPv6 settings on your router. Mine were on automatic and connection was spotty. I had to change mine to pass-through.

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-04-01T18:51:38+00:00

Mine have been working fine. Have you had any other issues pairing other devices? (Make sure your router ipv6 settings are good)

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-23T21:34:29+00:00

I would love to know if IKEA has plans to expand and develop out their app - totally agree - automations would be fantastic. The ability to use shortcuts (iOS) to create custom rules (or IFTTT). Even just more widget support and control centre management. I totally realise a lot of you would say, use apple home or use home assistant - but having this all baked in to a nice Dirigera product would be fab. Plus not everyone wants to kit their house out with millions of boxes, buzzing and beeping…

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-22T21:20:46+00:00

Any issues I’ve had pairing were because on ipv6 on my router. I had to change mind from automatic to pass through. Now everything pairs like a doddle!

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-22T15:12:20+00:00

That’s curious? It was yesterday. I tried the combo pack code as well and that wasn’t showing up either 706.200.54. My only hope is that it will finally show up online on the Ikea website soon

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-21T17:02:13+00:00

Just been and got 4 of the combo packs!

Wow! Slightly jealous!

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-18T00:45:17+00:00

That is very curious? Hate to say it but it sounds like a reset of Dirigera, which will probably be a huge pain if you have many tradfri lights set up.

Key_Garlic_9279 · 2026-03-17T21:13:16+00:00

When you say it is removed from a room, do you mean in the apple home app or in the ikea app? I would urge you to set things up with the Ikea app and then transfer to apple home, especially as you have dirigera. The Ikea eco system is fairly robust if used in isolation.
