This platform offers presence detection by looking at connected devices to a [DD-WRT](http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index) based router.
|
|
|
|
To use a DD-WRT router in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
device_tracker:
|
|
- platform: ddwrt
|
|
host: ROUTER_IP_ADDRESS
|
|
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
|
|
password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **host** (*Required*): The IP address of your router, e.g., `192.168.1.1`.
|
|
- **username** (*Required*: The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually `admin`.
|
|
- **password** (*Required*): The password for your given admin account.
|
|
|
|
By default Home Assistant pulls information about connected devices from DD-WRT every 5 seconds.
|
|
See the [device tracker component page](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
