Tags: #WiFi Reconfiguration
Model: Tapo H100  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.5.16 Build 240627 Rel.173158

Hi I have a fully configured H100 with 5x TP310 sensors connected to it with valuable historic temp/humidity data I don't want to loose.

 

Due to needing to change the wifi network that the H100 connects with (is currently configured for), how can this be achieved without reseting the H100 and loosing all my connected temp sensors and their associated historic data.

 

Phil

Use the same name and password on the new WiFi. Or export all the data from the sensor locally (in table form) and then reset the device to connect to the new network.

What a useless answer - simple answer is you can't reconfigure the WiFi for a different other WiFi network without reseting the hub and loosing all it's configured connected sensors, which has the knock-on effect that every sensor has to be reset to allow them to be reconnected to the reconfigured hub - which has only had it's WiFi connectivity changed.

 

Very poor implementation of hub WiFi reconfiguration options i.e. it doesn't have one!

 

Short sighted design where use in a multi WiFi environment hasn't even been considered and no distinction made between having to factory reset the hub vs simply changing the WiFi settings - that's like saying you have to reload you computer operating system to change it's network settings........... must do better !!

  @Phil2000 I just got an H100 as well and from the manual, it seems like you can reset the hub's wifi settings only (hold button for 5 seconds). Holding the button for 10 seconds will reset the hub to its factory settings
