Does anyone has any idea what to do or try?

Visit this link and read the info, as there is another way to control the Milight range.

EspMilightHub new binding for milight limitlessLED and easybulb

UPDATE: For all OH3 users please update to minimum of 3.1.0 Milestone 1 and the latest binding is merged and built in from now on. Just wanted to let other users of Milight globes know that I have completed a new Binding that allows a single opensource Bridge (bridge created by Chris Mullins aka Sidoh) to automatically find and add Milight globes into OpenHab. The first question Openhab users may have is “Why another binding when one already exists?”, The short answer/s to this is the new OPENS…

@David_Graeff

The protocol is quite unstable and since about a year the only source that provided any protocol information went offline.

@David_Graeff
Would it make sense to implement support for the REST protocol of the opensource hub into your binding? It is fully open and published and would allow people without MQTT to use the opensource hub. It would be far easier to maintain as all the differences between the globes and the different protocols is handled by the hub presenting you with a single consistent REST API.

Every few months Milight is inventing new remote models and now the ability to create a mesh network between the newer range of flood lights, I only see the complexity increasing so handing it off to an active opensource project is attractive to me.
