Shelly 1 Gen 2 MQTT Broken

  • Years ago I learnt some basic MQTT..
    Some of these solutions are still working today some commercial application based on Shelly 1 (Gen 1?) yes they work perfectly really great THEN

    Recently I try and deploy 3 x Shelly Plus 1 relays using Add On with 1 wire temp sensor. The 1 wire temp sensors work perfect but MQTT is dead in the water

    Yes im upgraded to latest firmware....

    With my MQTT Explorer on PC I see nothing I understand?

    As mentioned I have 3 x Shelly 1 Plus relays BUT only one is picked up by MQTT Explorer on PC? Why only 1 not the other 2? but even with the one that connects -how to I read it it? What am I missing? they have a common MQTT topic but diff devices Ids whats going on

    When I try and connect in Node-Red just never it reports connected then Not connected repeating and this is all on the local network???

    I have tried using old app and new control app and direct device http access in all sorts of ways but no luck but I do see some issues with software GUI between mobile app Shelly my cloud and direct http access are different -is anything tested these days?

    RPC or not RPC no documentations? All these new options buy no direction from Shelly what to use as default/std?

    Thanks for help by anyone

  • reactiv :

    mqtt works fine in Gen2 shelly, only in other way.

    You wrote, you use Plus1 and NodeRed, so have a look here:

  • Ok thanks for the tips. But lets look at the first problem

    3 identical setups with Shelly 1Plus and Add On module


    lets start here.

    Only 1 device is captured by MQTT Explorer App? I removed the lines forsys, swicth:0 and wifi from screenshot. All three devices are under subtopic 'nursery' with different device ids

  • can you make a screenshot from the mqtt settings from this working shelly? From the screenshot I'd assume this is one Shelly Plus 1 with Addon and at least 3 DS18B20 sensors?
