Hi, I got a Rachio Gen 1 with 16 zones device. When I blink the wifi password to the controller. It seems able to connect to my router and got IP address. But the device is shown offline in the App.
I login into the router and do some network analyze of the traffic. It shows that the controller was able to connect to the Internet and have some network exchange with some AWS host.
Here is some tcpdump of the traffic. I mask my local ip address as “#.#.#.#”.

However, it wasn’t able to show online in the App.
I understand Gen 1 is not supported any more and no more update for it. However the controller did able to connect to my router and talk to some AWS service. Is there any way I can talk directly to the Gen1 controller using my local IP address. If I can get it to start/stop a zone that would be at least get some use out of it.
Thanks
