core: Shelly devices often become unavailable for a couple of seconds

The problem

I have always used the ShellyForHass custom integration, where I never ever ran into this problem.

I am now giving the integrated Shelly integration a try, but I often see the following happening. Devices become unavailable every once in a while, sometimes for max. 1 minute, sometimes only a couple of seconds. My Wifi is stable.

(for the record, in the above screenshot, you see in two places two entities becoming unavailable at the same time. This is because both are the same device, a Shelly 2 and a Shelly 2.5. I also have a Shelly dimmer, not shown in the screenshot) If I can check or test anything, or enable some more extensive logging, please let me know how and I’ll gladly check it out.

Yes, @GoSpursGoNL if you still experience issues I suggest to wait for the next Shelly FW release which has major stability improvements and if it doesn’t help reopen this issue.

Done… I’ve also setup unicast, I was previously on Multicast.

Perfect, thank you.

Wow you guys are fast! I have now enabled debug logging. Shellies were set to multicast, I have changed it as per the instructions. Now let’s wait and see.
