ZHA started randomly dropping devices (lemmy.linuxuserspace.show)

For years I have had my zigbee network functional with a ConBee2 zigbee coordinator in my home assistant box.

But this week, devices started to randomly drop off the zigbee network. I could re-pair them and get them in again. But yesterday, it suddenly dropped 24 devices... Sensors, buttons and lightbulbs seem to be the most common ones.

I've restarted the ZHA integration, restarted the docker container, even downgraded to 2026.8.3. Still the same.

I checked the Home-Assistant github repo issues and there are lots of issues regarding zigbee and dropped devices in the last 2-3 weeks.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this happened all of the sudden?

The zigbee network has been stable for years before this.

EDIT: At this time I have re-paired all the devices and will see if they start dropping off again.

It's hard to know for sure an update, a glitch, or cosmic rays (probably not but who knows) can cause issues at times. The only thing you can do is troubleshoot and try to find a fix.
