This platform allows you to detect presence by looking at connected devices to a [NETGEAR](https://www.netgear.com/) device.
<div class='note'>
A recent updates of Orbi APs introduced a bug which takes several hours to detects presence on your local network. The current workaround is to force this integration to use the Orbi's API v2 by adding the `accesspoints:` node to your configuration.
</div>
To use this device tracker in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: netgear
password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD
```
{% configuration %}
url:
description: The base URL, e.g., `http://routerlogin.com:5000` for example. If not provided `host` and `port` are used. If none provided autodetection of the URL will be used.
required: false
type: string
host:
description: The IP address of your router, e.g., `192.168.1.1`.
required: false
type: string
port:
description: The port your router communicates with.
required: false
default: 5000
type: integer
username:
description: The username of a user with administrative privileges.
required: false
default: admin
type: string
password:
description: The password for your given admin account.
required: true
type: string
devices:
description: If provided only specified devices will be reported. Can be MAC address or the device name as reported in the NETGEAR UI.
required: false
type: list
exclude:
description: Devices to exclude from the scan.
required: false
type: list
accesspoints:
description: Also track devices on the specified APs. Only supports MAC address.
required: false
type: list
{% endconfiguration %}
When `accesspoints` is specified an extra device will be reported for each device connected to the APs specified here, as `MY-LAPTOP on RBS40`. `Router` will be reported as AP name for the main AP. Only tested with Orbi.
The use of `devices` or `exclude` is recommended when using `accesspoints` to avoid having a lot of entries.
List of models that are known to use port 80:
{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}
Most NETGEAR routers use port 5000 to communicate, however the following list of models are known to use port 80:
- Nighthawk X4S - AC2600 (R7800)
- Orbi
- XR500
When setup through ssdp discovery the port schould be automatically detected.
See the [device tracker integration page](/integrations/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
The options flow of the NETGEAR integration (in the sidebar of your Home Assistant instance click on "Configuration" -> "Integrations" -> find the NETGEAR integration and click "Configure") allows you to specify the 'consider_home' time. This is the amount of seconds to wait till marking someone as not home after not being seen. This parameter is most useful for households with Apple iOS devices that go into sleep mode while still at home to conserve battery life. iPhones will occasionally drop off the network and then re-appear. consider_home helps prevent false alarms in presence detection.
