MQTT: Smart Lock Firmware 3.5.3

Hi,

i got several wifi connection issues with the previous version 3.5.2. Now, since 3.5.3 no WiFi connection issues. Seems to be stable now.

→ Would give with with this version a try, to get MQTT work. This fails on my site.

My Setup - Private IP CLASS C (IoT on VLAN 5)
Network: 192.268.50.0/24
DHCP Server: 192.168.50.1
DNS Server: 192.168.50.150 (AdGuard Home)
MQTT: 192.168.50.220 ( Broker - mosquitto v2.0.15) on port 1883 (user “nuki” pw sha256 hashed WiFi password (lowercase). )
Nuki Client WiFi: SSID IoT on 2.4Ghz Only. RSSI:-58 WiFi-Quality: 13 Nuki Client IP: 192.168.50.99

MQTT Setup
Any DNS request to mqtt and mqtt.local are resolved to the ip address 192.168.50.220. This is also verified with ping on local machines and also with another mqtt devices. So, from network site the Brocker is reachable and is working. Info - Screenshot on bottom.

After Nuki Client is connected to the WiFi it receives the IP address from DHCP and it will also reuest the sseX.nuki.io. In this Example it retrieves the sse5.nuki.io (82.165.250.36). Connection to SSE is now successful and established. I can also see and confirm the DNS request “sse5.nuki.io” on the DNS Server. :white_check_mark:

:warning: There is no DNS request coming from the Nuki Client to mqtt either to mqtt.local.
Debug in the iOS Nuki App is enabled! (Tap 7 times with the corresponding information that the debug mode is activated. )

Trace:
After no DNS requests came in the direction of mqtt, I started to analyse what was happening. For me it seems that Nuki is not requesting the mqtt dns. It is using the sse5.nuki.io to try to get a mqtt connection. Please correct me if i’ma wrong. You see in the trace, what the nuki connects with port 443 (https) to nuki server sse5.nuki.io.

:ballot_box_with_check: -->This connection seems OK for me!

:negative_squared_cross_mark: Not OK. This should no be happen. Why is there connection going out to sseX.nuki.io at port 1883?

MQTT (Management View):

Smart Locks in beta report debug information to a Nuki server. This is done via mqtt too ( :wink:). So this connection is ok and only exists in beta firmwares. It is not related to the local MQTT API and it is also mentioned here: How to become a Nuki Smart Lock Beta tester

The Smart Lock tries to resolve mqtt.local via MDNS first. This is something that you most likely won’t see at your DNS server. If mqtt.local does not resolve, it tries to resolve mqtt via DNS.

Have you tried an mdns browser to check if mqtt.local resolves proberly via mdns?

sudo apt-get install -y avahi-utils
avahi-resolve --name mqtt.local -v

OK. So the connection going out to sseX.nuki.io at port 1883 is normal. Thank you for the Info.

My local default domain is ‘intern’ and not ‘local’. And yes, i already check that part. But should it not fallback to mqtt dns request, which also resolves ip address?

avahi-resolve -n mqtt.intern -v
Server-Version: avahi 0.7; Rechnername: qonospi.local
mqtt.intern	192.168.50.220

Since i’m using it in VLAN in a dedicated network, i will try to set a sub domain local for the iot part.

OK. After settings the whole domain assignments new on my local network. Nuki is now able to connect to the mqtt server. :+1:

mosquitto_1          | 1667655200: New connection from 192.168.50.99:52434 on port 1883.
mosquitto_1          | 1667655200: Client SL3P_XXXXXXXX already connected, closing old connection.
mosquitto_1          | 1667655200: New client connected from 192.168.50.99:52434 as SL3P_XXCXXXXX (p2, c1, k300, u'nuki').

I run into WiFi connection problems again with the FW 3.5.3! It seems that it just stuck after DHCP ip retrieving (What is the nuki doing there?). :wine_glass:

But anyway… got it working now. I Hope the final BETA version will run smother.


Feature Request: Please add the possibility to set nuki IP-Address manually! Do not only obtain it DHCP!

:information_source: Note: Since, my mqtt server is running in docker, i had to publish multicast dns manually, to be sure that it is found on nuki request.

avahi-publish-address mqtt.local 192.168.50.220

This will be obsolet, if i will be able to enter the mqtt ip-address in the released version.

I’m running the same MQTT broker in my setup but i’m not able to hash the password in sha256 only sha512, how did you set this up? My bad, small mistake on my side.

Hey there, did you manage to figure this out? I am running into the same issue as you do.
