Zigbee Went Down With My WiFi? (lemmy.tf)

The other day my WiFi network went down and with it, I lost access to my Zigbee network?* Is this normal or is this a sign of a massive issue?

*When I checked the Raspberry Pi running Home Assistant, all devices showed as unavailable.

that uses mDNS, which in some cases requires your router to be online to be able to resolve it to a ip. If part of your internet disruption was your router going down, it would explain the issue

Ahhhh, that explains it then. I so need to hurry up and build my router.
