Support Xiaomi Multimode Gateway on firmware 1.5.5 #13
Description
On previous firmware versions of the gateway, only the MiHome token was required to open the telnet. On firmware 1.5.5 this method was blocked.
Software method with key
Open telnet with gateway key. Only useful if you received the key on old gateway firmwares. There is no known way to get the key without a working telnet.
Attention! Gateway key is not a token.
Integration Xiaomi Gateway 3 starting from version 3.3.0 supports adding a gateway on firmware 1.5.5 using a token and a key.
The integration also automatically saves the key to the following places:
/config/.storage/core.config_entries/config/.storage/xiaomi_gateway3/keys.json
It is recommended to securely save your gateway key, even if you have a gateway of a different model. You might need it in the future updates.

Open telnet with gateway button clicks. Only useful if your gateway was previously connected to the integration Xiaomi Gateway 3. Because otherwise there will be a password on the telnet. There is no known way to get this password.
