Version 7.0.1 dropped my HS220 switches but my HS103 outlet are up

phodara commented 2 years ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

[X] I have searched the existing issues

What happened?

I upgraded to version 7.01 and all my smart switches disappeared. running on an rpi Zero, it has been running for a month with no problems. I tried to roll back to previous version same problem.

What, if anything, has recently changed?

Only upgraded the plugin though I am not sure if Kasa upgraded the firmware in the background. Kasa firmware for the HS220 switch is v 1.0.3

Version

7.01

Node Version

v16.13.2

Homebridge Version

1.4.0

Which OS/Platform?

Other (Please describe)

Relevant log output

No errors in then logs

Configuration

I am using the default:
        {
            "platform": "TplinkSmarthome",
            "name": "TplinkSmarthome"
        },

I tried all the specific configs for mac address, ip address etc. nothing seemed to work.  What is strange is that the plugs are working

Tried specifying switch IPs specifically and setting discovery to UDP. Still no longer discovering the HS220 switches. The outlets works fine.

I have the same problem, but even stranger. One of my bulbs shows up, and most of my outlets show up. No switches. Really weird. Just came back from a trip and most everything dropped off HomeKit. Tried the next version - same thing. Rolled back to June 2021 version -- same. Wonder if Kasa changed something?

I think I found the issue at least for my environment. I am running Google Nest Mesh routers. I just changed the security to protocol from WPA2 to WPA3. What should happen is WPA2 devices should still be able to connect. I did see homebridge connected and accessible. I then decided to reinstall homebridge from scratch but when I did so the new install was not able to connect to the WPA3 network. I turned off WPA3 on my routers and was able to successfully reinstall homebridge and all the plugins including tplink and now everything is working fine. I think my RPi-Zero running homebridge has an issue with WPA3. I am interested if Tarnor is running WPA3.

Interesting thought and I honestly had no idea. But checking my Unifi Dream Machine, it seems like I'm only using WPA2.

Maybe I should add that all of my lights, switches and outlets work fine via the Kasa app.

Also, I did a fresh install of Hoobs (4.0.31 I think), and restored the config from backup (TPLink 6.4) and although all of my Kasa stuff is there, it doesn't work. (Sidenote - tried a fresh install of 4.1.2 and it wouldn't even boot on my Pi0-2. Stuck at the rainbow screen).

Got a feeling that TP Link changed something but will wait to hear if any others have similar problems.

Not a big deal for me as I find the HomeKit app not very good anyway, and I have everything on timers in the Kasa App.

Interesting. My reinstall worked after switching off WPA3 and is still good. All my devices are discovered by homebridge and after I reconnected to homekit everything (wemo and Kasa) works with Siri. I like being able to give voice commands via Apple Watch. I may reinstall on a RPi 3 or 4 and see if the WPA3 issue is with the RPI Zero or the homebridge OS image.

I have several HS220 switches, along with other TP Link devices, all working well. Could be the router implementation of WPA3 compatible mode. I have an eero router, their first go at WPA3 has issues, all better now.

I have 2 HS220 dimmer switches. I am running “homebridge-tplink-smarthome hs220“ latest version. I only get light on or off, not getting the dimming feature, any idea how to fix this?
