TP-Link LTE component broken

[jonasgustavsson]

The problem

After upgrading from 2023.5.X to 2023.6.0, the component tplink_lte can no longer be setup. The following error is thrown when starting HA: ` Logger: homeassistant.setup Source: components/tplink_lte/init.py:97 First occurred: 16:43:07 (1 occurrences) Last logged: 16:43:07 Error during setup of component tplink_lte

TypeError: Passing coroutines is forbidden, use tasks explicitly.

I maintain two instances of HA, both connected to the a TP-Link Router each, and the stopped working after I upgraded them to 2023.6.0. Tried googeling, and found that my error is similar to https://github.com/claytonjn/hass-circadian_lighting/issues/227 - both started appearing in 2023.6.0 and states Passing coroutines is forbidden, use tasks explicitly. Judging by the comments, this seems to be a widespread issue among components as of 2023.6.0.

I've tried upgrading to latest HA, 2023.6.3, with no difference.

What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?

2023.6.0

What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?

2023.5.X

What type of installation are you running?

There hasn't been any activity on this issue recently. Due to the high number of incoming GitHub notifications, we have to clean some of the old issues, as many of them have already been resolved with the latest updates. Please make sure to update to the latest Home Assistant version and check if that solves the issue. Let us know if that works for you by adding a comment 👍 This issue has now been marked as stale and will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

Same here, it still has not been fixed. If anyone knows another add-on to send SMS over the TP-Link LTE Router I'm listening.

[gfn256]

Surprising that for a built-in integration, no one even responds to the problem!

[maweki]

Surprising that for a built-in integration, no one even responds to the problem!

Considering that it should be quite easy. Every integration had to have that boilerplate code fixed and I guess there's even an article on how to do it. I don't have a development environment for home assistant set up though and don't have time to fix it myself. Also, the patch submission process seems to be a bit involved.

But yeah, that's a 5 minute fix for a core developer.

[gfn256]

But yeah, that's a 5 minute fix for a core developer.

My thoughts exactly. Interestingly enough, looking in the code repo, the init.py was updated only 2 months ago. I know its not directly linked, but maybe we could ask Marc Mueller @cdce8p (who updated the above file) to have a look at this.

[cdce8p]

Please don't tag contributors just because they change a related file at some point. E.g. I my case it was just a mypy update.

However, I did take a look and it should be a fairly simple fix. Opened #107642. I can't validate it, so if you're able feel free to test it out.

[gfn256]

I'm really sorry for tagging you. I can't thank you enough for taking a look. Will this change make it into 2024.1.3? If not - how do I go about testing it in development? I see you've made one change to homeassistant/components/tplink_lte/init.py

It will install it as custom component. Please remove when 2024.1.3 is released

@paarak I don't have the hardware so it's a bit more difficult for me to debug. Would you mind checking if the host address in the config is correct? Please also try a restart and / or completely removing + restart + adding the config again.

[paarak]

Hello @cdce8p . tp-link responds to ping and config is correct. But maybe my tp-link is not compatible. I sent an sms from the gui on tp-link and it works.

Is there a setting I have to turn on in tp-link so HA has access rights to send sms?

@maweki or any others, have you tried this fix like @paarak has - with any success? (I personally haven't tried it, I'm waiting for 2024.1.3).

[cdce8p]

@paarak Sorry but as I said, I don't have access to a TP-Link device so can test it myself. The only info I have is from looking at the source code. Maybe someone else here knows more?

But maybe my tp-link is not compatible

The readme of the underlying library only mentions that it's tested with TP-Link TL-MR6400. Not sure if you're device would work the same. https://github.com/andtos90/tp-connected

[jonasgustavsson]

Thank you @cdce8p for trying to take this fix on. I was using the integration before it broke, and I still have the setup with the TP-Link TL-MR6400 hardware. It's located in my cottage many hours from where I live and doing an important job of keeping my water pipes from freezing. So I am not touching that HA instance unless I am forced to. Too much at risk. But sooner or later I will be visiting the cottage, and then I will try it out if no one else have yet. But that might be months from now unfortunately.

@paarak

Is there a setting I have to turn on in tp-link so HA has access rights to send sms?

From my memory when I did the setup: No. I think I would have added it into the docs (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/tplink_lte) in that case. (Even if I'm not a code I still try to contribute by improving the HA docs whenever I can).

[maweki]

So I do have a TP-Link TL-MR6400 with a current firmware. My router is also in a garden plot, but it's not too high stakes if something breaks. It also never worked for me, as I only set this stuff up this summer.

Anyway, I do also get the "no modem" found message with the custom component. Then I tried the original library and it seems to no longer work with the current firmware. The lib is unable to login to the router webinterface.

I don't know where we would go from there.

Same issue now for me. It looks also that for TP-LINK even if its same model (ex MR6400) it also differ in its versioning. In another thread there is a custom repo that worked for MR6400 v4.x.x but doesnt work for MR6400 v5.x.x

[jonasgustavsson]

Alright, I've now been visiting my two houses that each have a MR6400 (v 4.x.x. and v5.x.x) and updated both Home Assistant instances in each house to 2024.3.3. I have been able to run the integration before successfully with this setup, before it broke (and I opened this bug). I regret to inform you that the @cdce8p attempt to blind-fix this did not work out.

I now get a new error:

Considering that no maintainer has showed up during the 10 months since the bug was opened, I do not expect this to ever be fixed. In other words, I will consider this integration to be effectively dead.

I will consider this integration to be effectively dead.

What a shame. I'm pretty sure its fixable - with not a lot of work.

[freddiemare]

I have 4 of the TP-Link LTE MR6400 routers and need to get this working

GPT reken this when asked what the issue could be.

The error message indicates a problem with importing the tp_connected module, specifically within the js2py package. Here's a breakdown of what's happening:

Initial Error:

The error occurs when trying to set up the tplink_lte component in Home Assistant. The import process fails at js2py.utils.injector.py, where it tries to access an element with key 3 in name_translations. KeyError:

This happens because the key 3 is not present in the name_translations dictionary in the js2py package. Root Cause:

The error is due to the js2py package, specifically in the fix_js_args function within the injector.py file. It tries to append arguments to a function, but encounters an unexpected key. Exception Handling:

This KeyError is caught and results in an ImportError for the tplink_lte component in Home Assistant. Steps to Resolve: Check for Updates:

Ensure that both homeassistant and js2py packages are up-to-date. Sometimes, these issues are resolved in newer versions. bash Copy code pip install --upgrade homeassistant js2py Inspect js2py Source:

If the issue persists, inspect the js2py source code, particularly the fix_js_args function in the injector.py file. This might help identify why the key 3 is missing. Report Issue:

If this is a persistent bug, consider reporting it to the maintainers of the js2py library. Provide the traceback and context so they can address it in future updates. Temporary Workaround:

As a temporary workaround, you might modify the injector.py file manually to handle or avoid the KeyError. However, this is not recommended for a production environment as it can lead to other issues. Example of Manual Fix: Here’s a rough example of how you might modify the injector.py to handle the missing key:

python Copy code

In js2py/utils/injector.py

def append_arguments(code, args): for inst in code.co_code: if inst.opname == 'LOAD_FAST' and inst.arg not in name_translations: name_translations[inst.arg] = 'default_value' # Provide a default value or handle appropriately ... This would prevent the KeyError by providing a default value, but it’s a hacky solution and should be used with caution.

Alternative Libraries: If the issue remains unresolved and is critical, consider using an alternative library or component that provides similar functionality. By following these steps, you should be able to either resolve the issue or at least identify the underlying problem for further action.

[maweki]

GPT reken this when asked what the issue could be.

the answer looks exactly like ChatGPT. Subtly wrong and completely devoid of insight.

The login-form and possibly the whole webinterface changed between router firmware versions. js2py is used to simulate some cryptographic functions that the browser would have done (https://github.com/F5OEO/tp-connected/blob/master/utility/tp_link_encryption.js) during login. Looks like key exchange to me. But as the login form and the associated crypto (and, again, the whole webinterface) changed, this can not be fixed by just updating something.

The new login form needs to be investigated and analysed, so that the human login behaviour can be simulated by the python lib.
