Trying to add a Govee device and SignalRGB can see it, given the logs…but it is discarding them because of a missing IP field. However, without more info/context I don’t know how to resolve that issue. Anyone dealt with this before?

Try turning LAN Control off and on again in the Govee app for that device. If the option is missing, then it won’t be compatible with SignalRGB. Does that help?

The option is there, but that did not work.

Looking at the Govee plugin code, it is not going to be added unless the Govee device response changes as there is an expectation that the response carry the device’s IP.
