Tapo P100 not willing to initiate / communicate ... just no
hi there ...
lately updated my network to tp Link products ... no fancy configurations ... just plugged in & let go ... Router / Switches / APs all worked stable - all wanted enduser connected without any problems ... some of them got fixed ips - the rest goes via dhcp and most connected through my APs (Alexa / Hub / Tablets / Phones etc.) ... so i thought - easypeasy - lets change my smartplugs too ... bought 8 of P100 and none of them is willing to communicate :/
after a long journey of trial & error - i'm finally here ... hopefully to find a solution with u guys ;)
my setup - short overview:
TP-LINK ER605
-> TP-Link TL-SG108E
-> div. Enduser
-> TP-Link TL-SG1005P
-> div. Enduser
-> 2x TP-Link EAP653
-> div. Enduser
-> Kasa KH100
-> div. KE100
-> div. T110
-> TP-Link OC200
my journey:
plug in - Kasa app opened - + - choose P100 ... and this is the final answer of all attempts
soooo ... like mentioned - pressed button for 5 sec - next try
pressed for 10 sec - next try
pluged in another poweroutlet - next try
changed the range between my aps - next try
restarted my wifi on phone incl. bluetooth - next try
read some google-answers
unplugged all not needed endusers ... so only my main desktop & my phone were active - next try
tried this step also with another tablet while my phone was disconnected
changed wifi settings to only 2,4GHz & WPA2 - next try
changed the channel from 1 to 6 to 11 and back - next try
changed and tried every single p100 of my bought ones - but only with step 1 - 3 - next try
and my last attempt - connected Alexa & activated Skill Tapo & allowed everything - the no-brainer 4 dummys - as promissed - next try ???
somewhere i read - Tapo_Plug_XXX Wireless - should appear in wifis - nope ... just a side info
soooo ... now its hopefully your turn - guide my way pls !
thx in adv
hope to read somewhat anytime soon !? ;)
