## Troubleshooting
Home Assistant uses the following UDP multicast addresses/ports for communication with the gateway:
- Motion hub receive UDP multicast `238.0.0.18:32100`
- Motion hub sending UDP multicast `238.0.0.18:32101`
This communication needs to be allowed on your local network. If the blinds are unavailable and you see error messages like:
`Timeout of 5.0 sec occurred on 5 attempts while waiting on multicast push from update request, communication between gateway and blind might be bad.`
Please make sure the motion gateway and the device running Home Assistant are on the same VLAN and multicasting is enabled/allowed by your router.
If using separate VLANs, make sure the 238.0.0.18:32100 and 238.0.0.18:32101 ports are open for communication between those VLANs (not tested or confirmed to work).
