Been using the Venstar colourtouch T7900 for a while now and was very happy with it. But ever since configuring HomeAssistant with my local Certs/Authority (I run it all local only and access remotely via Wireguard), it won’t communicate with HA anymore. I updated the firmware and rebooted it and it came back for about a week but has since become unavailable again in HomeAssistant and rebooting fails to fix it anymore.

anyone else have this issue. or am I missing something here?

side note/context: I have both the thermostat and HomeAssistant configured with static IP addresses, if that matters at all.

    yes, external termination is definitely ideal (I prefer https when possible as my browsers are set to reject http and it gets annoying with local stuff. plus I’ve got a local CA I use so it’s not a lot of extra work to set up).

    Thing is, I find HA a bit frustrating to configure, it’s not like the other linux LXCs/VMs I run on my proxmox so I’m not super familiar with installing stuff outside of the HA OS in that container. is the process any different than running nginx on any other distro?
