    Is the plugin working for anyone - works great!

    I do not seem to be able to get the nest plugin to connect. I see a couple of threads on this, but it's a lot to read up on. Is the plugin working for anyone?

    I'm on win server 2012, and I confirmed that I have .net 4.5.2 installed. I can connect to Nest with my iphone app, but the HS plugin says the thermostat is offline. I confirmed that homeseer is still listed in "works with nest" on the nest site.

    the plugin is quite popular and works well, the only known problem is that it doesn't work anymore on windows XP.

    can you set the log level to debug, and post the logs you get after a restart of the plugin?

      OK, I 'm glad it's working for many. My debug log is:

      Code:

            It seems my gateway is blocking: 54.81.237.197:9553

            That is an amazon ec2 site. Is this where Nest is hosting?

              then you have something on your HS3 machine or on your network blocking the connection to Nest servers

              try to disable your firewall / AV

              test the same url on your iphone, since you said the Nest app works from there, the url should work too and you should get some json data.

                  Thanks spud, should never have doubted the plugin. What happened is nest changed the subnet and my firewall rule was too strict. I have edited my rule and am back in business.

                  Everything appears to be working well now.

                    Having a similar issue, but the difference is, my plugin will update if I change the thermostat or use the nest app. If I make changes from the plugin, nothing happens. However, if I restart the thermostat or restart Homeseer, the very first change I make will reflect on the thermostat, but no subsequent changes from the plugin will affect the thermostat. I tried that URL, and I got:

                    Code:
                    {"error":"unauthorized","type":"https://developer.nest.com/documentation/cloud/error-messages#auth-error","message":"unauthorized","instance": [I removed the token text]

                      can you try to do the authorization process again?

                        Hi Spud,

                        Even with the patch to .NET the plugin won't work on XP? Damn! I have a Hometroller that runs xpe.... Any work around that you are aware of?

                        Cheers!

                          unfortunately there is no workaround that I'm aware of.
                          the problem is that windows XP native libraries do not support any cipher that the Nest servers are expecting to communicate using SSL.
                          I haven't tested it on XP for a while, so you could give it a try though, maybe Nest changed the configuration of their servers back to what worked with the plugin, but I would be surprised.

                            the problem is that windows XP native libraries do not support any cipher that the Nest servers are expecting to communicate using SSL.
                            I haven't tested it on XP for a while, so you could give it a try though, maybe Nest change the configuration of their servers back to what worked with the plugin, but I would be surprised.
                            Yeah, it doesn't work. Oh well, time to investigate upgrading the OS on my S4 Hometroller to Win7 Embedded. Any words of advice on that?

                            Cheers!

                              I don't have any experience with the Hometrollers, so I can't advise on that.

                              However, one workaround that I never mentioned is to run the plugin remotely: If you have another PC running 24/24 7/7, you could run the Nest plugin on it (assuming the OS is not XP) and make it connect to HS3. Let me know if you want some help with that.
