HassWP VS homebridge-platform-insteonlocal

I just visited their Github page and the most recent release is 2022.2.3, which you may already have. That's too bad, because Home Assistant itself is showing some rapid changes right now, with two significant releases in the past few days.

In the video, linked below is a link for this: Downloaded this https://github.com/AlexxIT/HassWP - its a portable version of home assistant and just works! It's huge and takes a while to extract but works really awesome. It's a 500 mb zip that has python. Extract it to a folder and run the app as per the video. Keep it running (on windows 10 you can move it to another desktop if you're afraid you might close it)

FYI, you can run my homebridge plugin directly on the Hub Pro itself and get much better reliability/features than the actual Hub Pro. See here: https://github.com/kuestess/homebridge-platform-insteonlocal

u/contrarianbynature The Hub Pro is actually a PLM connected to a beaglebone black inside the box, and you can run homebridge and my homebridge plugin to get all of the functionality (and more) back. See here: https://github.com/kuestess/homebridge-platform-insteonlocal

I fixed it by downgrading my InsteonLocal plugin to 0.4.24 (April 18, 2022). This removed the dnsmasq error. I stumbled across this solution in a gitub repository forum here: https://github.com/kuestess/homebridge-platform-insteonlocal/issues/218

In addition to having a PLM, theres a BeagleBoard Single Board Computer in there. For more sophisticated control than the OEM Insteon software, some people have gotten Homebridge running on it. https://github.com/kuestess/homebridge-platform-insteonlocal

I'm fairly new to HomeKit, but have a fair amount of home automation hardware (ecobee thermostat, Insteon door, motion, and water sensors, Insteon light switches, Logitech Harmony Hubs, etc.). Have been migrating everything over from Indigo over the past few weeks, including upgrading to an eero wifi network (excellent!) and using Homebridge to bring in the Insteon hardware (with the Homebridge Platform InsteonLocal plugin). Bringing the hardware in and controlling it with basic steps was pretty straightforward.
