AI-Mesh with Shelly (CoIOT not possible on mesh node)

[mansch]

Hi

I have two RT-AC5300 routers with AI mesh. Various Shelly's (https://shelly.cloud/) are connected on them. But now the CoIOT protocol (https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/docs/coiot/v1/CoIoT for Shelly devices (rev 1.0) .pdf) does not work when a device is connected to a mesh node. When they are connected to the base station, everything works.
Since CoIOT is based on multicast, I think that is where the error is.

The problem happens with stock firmware and Merlin stable and beta.

Best thanks for fixing the problem.

Kind regards

Manuel
