Tapo H100 integration

Third party integrations
1

OS Version: Home Assistant OS 12.2
Home Assistant Core: 2024.4.3

Scripted Proxmox install using procedure found here:

Single add-on installed “Advanced SSH & Web Terminal” (works a treat!)

My goal is to add a tp-link tapo H100 ‘Smart Hub’ to Home assistant. The H100 is listed as a device supported by ‘python-kasa’.
The H100 hub is provisioned to my WiFi network using the Android tp link app, and verified working with a tapo T310 temperature sensor.

Following instructions found here:

I receive the following error:
“Connection error: Unsupported device 10.X.Y.Z of type SMART.TAPOHUB with encrypt_type AES”

What have I missed?

Is the H100 hub listed as a supported device?

I added the H100 to HA using Matter with no issues. GitHub - petretiandrea/home-assistant-tapo-p100: A custom integration to control Tapo devices from home assistant. also lists it as supported.

Thank you!
Needed to create a GitHub account. and install HACS - all now working a treat!
Thanks - again!

thanks to all those who shared!

for me the procedure then became;

  1. reset password with all lower case (letters and numbers only) on the app.
  2. remove the T100 hub from the app.
  3. add the T100 hub to the app.
  4. add the discovered device (in home assistant) with the new lowercase password.
  5. happy days.

Just updating here for future visitors.
So my electricity tripped the other day and for some reason things were just not right. Everything restored as usual except the TAPO integration and the Matter integration (yes, seperate integrations). I suspect something to do with the TAPO setup that I need to figure out.

Anyway, Matter was a quick entity name update.

For this Tapo H100 integration, it lost auth and was complaining in the log [DeviceFactory] None of available protocol is working, maybe invalid credentials.

My creds were unchanged. I followed the same process I wrote about in the previous post and still no joy.

What worked: I had to delete the HUB (not the integration), reboot HA and then it autodiscovered. However, I was getting (far more) errors in the logs and couldn’t re-add the HUB… until I removed the T110 contact sensors from the cloud app. Left all the motion sensors and button in tact. Only after removing the contact sensors did it auth and add the HUB again.

On version 3.1.2 of the integration. Core 2024.6.1.

Hope this helps someone! :slight_smile:

P.S. for what its worth.
Error log entry that led me to try exclude the contact sensors:
File “/usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/plugp100/new/components/smart_door_component.py”, line 15, in update
self.is_open = current_state[“is_open”]
