# 🔧 Troubleshooting Guide
Having issues with AdGuard Control Hub? This comprehensive guide covers common problems and their solutions.
## 🚨 Common Issues
### Integration Not Found
**Problem**: AdGuard Control Hub doesn't appear in the integrations list.
**Solutions**:
1. **HACS Users**:
```bash
# Verify repository was added correctly
# Go to HACS > Integrations > Menu > Custom repositories
# Check if your repository URL is listed
```
2. **Manual Installation**:
```bash
# Check file location
ls -la /config/custom_components/adguard_hub/
# Should show:
# __init__.py, manifest.json, config_flow.py, etc.
```
3. **General**:
- Restart Home Assistant
- Clear browser cache (Ctrl+F5)
- Check Home Assistant logs for errors
### Cannot Connect to AdGuard Home
**Error**: "Failed to connect to AdGuard Home"
**Diagnostic Steps**:
```bash
# Test basic connectivity
ping 192.168.1.100 # Replace with your AdGuard IP
# Test HTTP access
curl -I http://192.168.1.100:3000/
# Test with authentication
curl -u admin:password http://192.168.1.100:3000/control/status
```
**Solutions**:
1. **Check IP Address and Port**:
- Verify AdGuard Home IP address
- Confirm port (usually 3000)
- Test from Home Assistant server directly
2. **Authentication Issues**:
- Verify username/password in AdGuard Home web interface
- Create dedicated user for Home Assistant
- Ensure user has admin privileges
3. **Network Issues**:
```bash
# Check if AdGuard Home is running
sudo systemctl status AdGuardHome
# Check listening ports
netstat -tlnp | grep :3000
# Check firewall
sudo ufw status
```
4. **SSL/TLS Issues**:
- Disable "Verify SSL" for self-signed certificates
- Use HTTP instead of HTTPS for testing
- Check certificate validity
### No Entities Created
**Problem**: Integration connects but creates no entities.
**Diagnostic**:
```yaml
# Enable debug logging in configuration.yaml
logger:
default: warning
logs:
custom_components.adguard_hub: debug
```
**Solutions**:
1. **Check AdGuard Home Configuration**:
- Ensure AdGuard Home has clients configured
- Verify API endpoints are accessible
- Check AdGuard Home logs for errors
2. **Integration Issues**:
- Reload integration: Settings > Devices & Services > AdGuard Control Hub > Reload
- Remove and re-add integration
- Check entity registry for disabled entities
3. **Permissions**:
```bash
# Check file permissions
sudo chown -R homeassistant:homeassistant /config/custom_components/
sudo chmod -R 755 /config/custom_components/
```
### Services Not Working
**Problem**: Service calls fail or don't have expected effect.
**Solutions**:
1. **Check Service Calls**:
```yaml
# Test in Developer Tools > Services
service: adguard_hub.emergency_unblock
data:
duration: 60
clients: ["all"]
```
2. **Verify Client Names**:
- Use exact client names as they appear in AdGuard Home
- Check entity names in Home Assistant
- Use Developer Tools > States to verify entity IDs
3. **API Limitations**:
- Some AdGuard Home versions have API limitations
- Check AdGuard Home version compatibility
- Review AdGuard Home documentation
## 📊 Performance Issues
### Slow Response Times
**Symptoms**: Long delays when toggling switches or calling services.
**Solutions**:
1. **Adjust Scan Interval**:
```yaml
# In configuration.yaml
adguard_hub:
scan_interval: 60 # Increase from default 30
```
2. **Reduce Entity Count**:
```yaml
# Disable unnecessary features
adguard_hub:
blocked_services_as_switches: false
enable_statistics: false
```
3. **Network Optimization**:
- Use wired connection instead of Wi-Fi
- Check network latency to AdGuard Home
- Consider AdGuard Home hardware resources
### High CPU Usage
**Problem**: Home Assistant shows high CPU usage from the integration.
**Solutions**:
1. **Optimize Configuration**:
```yaml
adguard_hub:
scan_interval: 120 # Reduce update frequency
auto_create_clients: false # Manual client management
```
2. **Check Logs**:
```bash
# Look for excessive API calls or errors
grep "adguard_hub" /config/home-assistant.log
```
3. **System Resources**:
- Monitor AdGuard Home resource usage
- Check Home Assistant system resources
- Consider hardware upgrades
## 🔐 Authentication & Security Issues
### Authentication Failures
**Error**: "Invalid username or password"
**Solutions**:
1. **Verify Credentials**:
- Test login in AdGuard Home web interface
- Check for special characters in password
- Ensure caps lock and keyboard layout
2. **Create Dedicated User**:
```
AdGuard Home Web Interface:
Settings > General Settings > Authentication
Add user: "homeassistant" with admin privileges
```
3. **Check Account Status**:
- Ensure account isn't locked or disabled
- Verify admin privileges
- Check AdGuard Home user management
### SSL Certificate Issues
**Error**: "SSL certificate verification failed"
**Solutions**:
1. **For Self-Signed Certificates**:
- Disable "Verify SSL" in integration settings
- Or add certificate to trusted store
2. **For Invalid Certificates**:
```bash
# Check certificate validity
openssl s_client -connect 192.168.1.100:443 -servername your-domain
```
3. **Use HTTP for Testing**:
- Temporarily switch to HTTP
- Test basic functionality
- Re-enable HTTPS after fixing certificates
## 📡 Network & Connectivity Issues
### DNS Resolution Problems
**Problem**: Home Assistant can't resolve AdGuard Home hostname.
**Solutions**:
1. **Use IP Address**:
- Replace hostname with IP address
- Test connectivity with IP first
2. **Check DNS Configuration**:
```bash
# Test DNS resolution
nslookup adguard.local
dig adguard.local
```
3. **Update /etc/hosts**:
```bash
# Add to /etc/hosts if needed
echo "192.168.1.100 adguard.local" >> /etc/hosts
```
### Port Conflicts
**Problem**: Port 3000 is not accessible or in use by another service.
**Solutions**:
1. **Check Port Usage**:
```bash
# See what's using port 3000
sudo lsof -i :3000
netstat -tlnp | grep :3000
```
2. **Change AdGuard Home Port**:
```yaml
# In AdGuard Home configuration
http:
address: 0.0.0.0:3001 # Change port
```
3. **Update Integration Configuration**:
- Remove and re-add integration
- Use new port number
### Firewall Issues
**Problem**: Connection blocked by firewall.
**Solutions**:
1. **Check Firewall Status**:
```bash
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo ufw status
# CentOS/RHEL
sudo firewall-cmd --list-all
```
2. **Allow AdGuard Home Port**:
```bash
# UFW
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.10 to any port 3000
# firewalld
sudo firewall-cmd --add-port=3000/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
```
3. **Test Without Firewall** (temporarily):
```bash
# Disable firewall for testing (CAUTION)
sudo ufw disable
# Test connection, then re-enable
sudo ufw enable
```
## 🔄 Update & Upgrade Issues
### Update Failures
**Problem**: Integration fails to update via HACS.
**Solutions**:
1. **Manual Update**:
```bash
# Remove old version
rm -rf /config/custom_components/adguard_hub
# Download and install new version
# (Follow manual installation steps)
```
2. **HACS Cache Issues**:
- Restart Home Assistant
- Clear HACS cache
- Re-add custom repository if needed
3. **Version Conflicts**:
- Check Home Assistant version compatibility
- Review integration changelog
- Consider rolling back if needed
### Configuration Migration
**Problem**: Settings lost after update.
**Solutions**:
1. **Backup Before Updates**:
```bash
# Backup configuration
cp -r /config/custom_components/adguard_hub /config/backup/
```
2. **Reconfigure Integration**:
- Remove integration
- Re-add with previous settings
- Verify entity names haven't changed
