[bug][help wanted] Session missmatch in Presence monitoring (yellow color)

[kris969]

Hi jokob-sk,

I witness the 3 colors on presence monitoring for several devices:

If green and blue status are clear to understand, it's not the case for he yellow one. Looking at the help popup let me understand so you're:

I will keep a look on this to try to understand if there are common devices parameter.

Up to know, I witness the following:

• most devices having yellow status are WIFI connected, but not only.
• some of WIFI devices are smartphones and are often powering-off their WIFI interface to save energy.
• I have a set of devices having yellow status, these devices are always the same.
• many devices neither have yellow status.

I will try to find common criteria, easy to say not to do :(

Thanks

Hi @kris969 ,

That's one of the bugs I don't have energy to fix. Anyone reading - PRs are welcome.

I've been avoiding this part of the app since I started maintaining it. The code isn't very readable IMO so I tried to avoid touching it. I know there are a couple of bugs, but I'd say they are non-breaking issues. I will try to have a look in the next few days, but not sure if I can find the bug.

If you have the availability and interest, these are the 2 files which I think need to be fixed.
