Open the dashboard
After installation, the Home Assistant dashboard is available on your network at http://<devkit-ip>:8123, where <devkit-ip> is your device’s IP address.
Find your device’s IP in the DevKit section under MQTT, shown as Device IP. For example, if it is 192.168.18.106, open http://192.168.18.106:8123 in your browser.
Sign in with the default credentials:
| Field | Value |

| Username | openhome_devkit_user |
| Password | admin123 |
Once you’re signed in, change the password from your Home Assistant profile for better security.
