Hi everyone,
I’m trying to connect Home Assistant to an MQTT server provided by hivemq.cloud. I ran a quick test using the public test broker at broker.hivemq.com with the following setup:
- No username or password
- Port: 1883 (non-SSL)
This configuration works perfectly, and Home Assistant connects immediately.
However, when I attempt to use the SSL port (8883), the connection fails.
Does anyone have experience with configuring SSL for MQTT in Home Assistant or know what could be causing this issue? I’d appreciate any insights or troubleshooting tips.
Thanks in advance!
