Tomi the Slav and 1024 others<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MELCloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MELCloud</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Mitsubishi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mitsubishi</span></a> shenenigans (read: enshittification level 2).<br>Today they sent a new TOS for usage of their cloud services (remote control of heatpumps etc.). With this new TOS they are practically limiting remote access to their apps/webpage and rejecting others (e. g. via <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homeassistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeassistant</span></a>)<br>TOS is 20 pages long. <br>The most important sentence is:<br>...<br>3.7 You will:<br>(a) only use the System and the Services via the Application or the Website;<br>...<br>&lt;insert 'most i can do' meme&gt;</p><p>(1/)</p>
Harald Hannelius :verified:<p>Yess, I finally got around to convert my <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/homeassistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeassistant</span></a> Core to Supervised and thus got <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/esphome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>esphome</span></a>. The final trigger was the recent <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/melcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>melcloud</span></a> fiasco. It was really easy to install a Wemos D1 Mini with a ready made pigtail into my <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/mitsubishi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mitsubishi</span></a> MSZ-RW25 <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/heatpump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>heatpump</span></a>, I didn't even had to remove the Melcloud dongle so now I have local control AND Melcloud (when it works). Also ready for when Mitsubishi starts charging for the cloud service. </p><p>A Wemos D1 Mini costs 12 € for three.</p>
Harald Hannelius :verified:<p>Interesting background on the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/melcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>melcloud</span></a> app and this explains it's archaic UI. <br>And they are working on a payed app as well, no thanks. I'll use <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ESP8266" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ESP8266</span></a> and <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/homeassistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeassistant</span></a> with local control instead thank You very much.</p><p><a href="https://community.home-assistant.io/t/melcloud-not-working/718920/174" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">community.home-assistant.io/t/</span><span class="invisible">melcloud-not-working/718920/174</span></a></p>
Tomi the Slav and 1024 others<p>Yes, it is the DNS.</p><p>Today is the fourth day of the Mitsubishi's MELCloud outage. This means their heatpumps and AC units all over the EU can not be controlled remotely. Their communication about the issue is a shame, again.</p><p>The quick temporary workaround is to add the following entry to your local DNS (router or Pi-hole or similar):</p><p>production.receiver.melcloud.com 52.49.107.93</p><p>It is high time to legislate local access to 'smart' devices.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mitsubishielectric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mitsubishielectric</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/melcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>melcloud</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homeassistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homeassistant</span></a></p>

Francesca :mastodon:<p>🇮🇹 Buongiorno! Qualcuno ha i condizionatori Mitsubishi Kirigamine collegati a MELCloud? Da giovedì non si collegano più al server (che dovrebbe essere production.receiver.melcloud.com) e posso geatirli solo con il telecomando. </p><p>🇬🇧 Hi! Someone has Mitsubishi Kirigamine connected to MELCloud? Since Thursday my 3 units lost connection with server (should be production.receiver.melcloud.com), I can manage them only with the remote.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mastoaiuto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastoaiuto</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mastohelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastohelp</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mitsubishi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mitsubishi</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/kirigamine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kirigamine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MELcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MELcloud</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dns</span></a></p>
Harald Hannelius :verified:<p>So my <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Melcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Melcloud</span></a> account is now blocked :/ Probably by too many API-calls from my <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/HomeAssistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HomeAssistant</span></a>.</p>
