Home Assistant OpenTherm Gateway Integration Failed to Connect #270

Hello,

I got an OpenTherm Gateway from nodo shop, pre-soldered and configured. I plugged it in and configured the wifi. I struggled to set up the OpenTherm Gateway integration in Home Assistant though. I used nmap to check which ports were open (80 and 23) and I set the address of the OTGW to socket://192.168.50.207:23 (the IP is static of course). It keeps telling me it failed to connect, I tried without port, without socket://. I can connect to it from the otmonitor Windows utility, and I was able to configure and use it with MQTT in Home Assistant, but I would prefer to use the OpenTherm Gateway Integration. I am not sure how to get it working though...

The serial device on socket://192.168.50.207:23 is not responding. Will keep trying.
