    Xiaomi Gateway Flashing Red?

    When I came downstairs this morning, I realized one of my Gateways had been flashing red all night from the moment arming became active. I could verify this on my Dafang security camera footage. No alarm went off last night though. Even now I am getting a message notification inside the MiHome...

    Another tip: if you keep getting disconnected in the app or your app seems to have trouble connecting to your cam: try disabling "20/40Mhz Co-Existence" (or a similar function) on your router. For me, it did the trick.
