Kasa HS103 FAILED SETUP, WILL RETRY

Configuration
1

Hello there, I have a stock HS103 Kasa Smart Plug that Home Assistant informed me it detected automatically as a new device on my network, and wants to set it up! Amazing! That’s convenient!

Except - it doesn’t work

It now just says FAILED SETUP WILL RETRY and it’s stuck in a loop, with zero useful output or any kind of information as to what it’s problem is

Thanks for any help!

You’re not alone. This is an ongoing issue for the last couple of weeks, involving an update to python-kasa. It’s being worked on, but the fix hasn’t made it into an update yet.

Try months! I’ve got 30 TP-Link devices with the same failed setup problem. It’s now mid March 2024, and it’s been going on for over a year.
