Issue with new ewpe ac devices

[NickB1]

Hi,

Thanks for the great work on this program. I'm trying to read out two ac units which have been installed today with ewpe wifi modules. Unfortunately I get a cipher error:

Any idea what the problem could be? Maybe something changed in the communication protocol of the new devices?

Best regards

I made a patch, hopefully the owner will accept the pull requests.

Updated the app, so it will not crash in case of decrypt failure and will just print the error to the console, I hope it will help with the issue
