Describe the bug
I have my OEPL AP with its internet access disabled. It is still of course able to talk to devices in the LAN and HA instance. After a power outage, when it restarted, it stopped updating the tags altogether until I allowed it internet access again.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior
it should be able to do its tag updates without needing internet access.
Additional context
I wonder if one needs to be connected to the internet for this to function, or if it's something to do with the time update. If yes, could we configure it by providing the current date manually or via home assistant?
@jonasniesner commented on GitHub (Sep 6, 2025):
As you suspected, the problem with no internet access is the lack of a time server. It would in theory be possible to use a local NTP server, but this would have to be implemented.
