Hi all,

I am using openhabian on OH 5.2.3.

After a router reboot I got this error in the log:

```

It appears every 5 seconds.

Apparently a function called in the matter code is deprecated?

How to solve it?

EDIT: after a restart of OH the bridge is RUNNING. But it means that if the router reboots, the bridge stops?
