I’m using network-binding since years now to ping devices and use their online-status.
currently with openHABian 1.9 with openHAB 4.1.1
Thing:
UID: network:pingdevice:handyThomas
label: Netzwerk Handy Thomas
thingTypeUID: network:pingdevice
configuration:
hostname: 192.168.78.yy
macAddress: F4:02:xx:xx:xx:xx
refreshInterval: 60000
retry: 2
timeout: 50000
channels:
- id: online
channelTypeUID: network:online
label: Online
description: Gibt an ob das Gerät aktuell online oder offline ist.
configuration: {}
- id: latency
channelTypeUID: network:latency
label: Pingzeit

configuration: {}
- id: lastseen
channelTypeUID: network:lastseen

the online-Channel is linked to HandyThomas_Online. The status didn’t change for some days:
after restarting the Thing it changed immediately:

is there something I can do?
