MQTT retry doesn't retry

Interesting. I have five units, all on the same firmware. Two of them will not show up in HA, even after rebooting the units. I wonder if this would fix that? The web UI on both works fine.

Rebooting the unit will reset lastmqttretry and millis back down to 0 which makes the original logic valid again, so if those units are not reconnecting after a reboot it shouldn't be this particular bug unless there is more to it.

Off topic for this ticket, but out of curiosity, on the unconnected units status page, do you also get MQTT status of -4 or something else? That may provide more clues for your particular issue.

    -4 : MQTT_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT - the server didn't respond within the keepalive time
    -3 : MQTT_CONNECTION_LOST - the network connection was broken
    -2 : MQTT_CONNECT_FAILED - the network connection failed
    -1 : MQTT_DISCONNECTED - the client is disconnected cleanly
    0 : MQTT_CONNECTED - the client is connected
    1 : MQTT_CONNECT_BAD_PROTOCOL - the server doesn't support the requested version of MQTT
    2 : MQTT_CONNECT_BAD_CLIENT_ID - the server rejected the client identifier
    3 : MQTT_CONNECT_UNAVAILABLE - the server was unable to accept the connection
    4 : MQTT_CONNECT_BAD_CREDENTIALS - the username/password were rejected
    5 : MQTT_CONNECT_UNAUTHORIZED - the client was not authorized to connect

@brackw Nope, signing into that device directly, the Status page shows:
"MQTT Status ==> CONNECTED ( 0 )"

It's so strange.
