Model: KP115  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.7

Here is my issue.  I have a Kasa Smart plug in my workshop that powers my POE switch.  That switch powers my ubiquiti nano station and POE cameras.  Occasionally I need to restart my POE switch to restart my cameras or antenna to fix an issue.  When I chose to power down the switch via the plug it is no longer connected to my LAN and can't be turned back on.  

 

I need to figure out a was to power down the Kasa Smart plug and have it turn back on automatically, without using the app on my phone.  Is there a way to program the plug to do this?

 

Thanks!

I can confirm that with using Smartthings you could set up a routine to turn a device on or off in relation to it's status. And you can add time delays too. For example:

If bedroom lamp is turned off and stays off for 10 seconds, then turn on bedroom lamp.

I would suggest looking at Samsung's SmartThings app.  We are fully integrated into their app with Cloud-to-Cloud linking, just like how our devices connect to Google Assistant or Alexa.  You might find a way to use their Smart Actions/routines to trigger an auto-on after a power-off is detected.  I can't say that is does because I have not personally played with the app but our Smart actions and Scenes do not have this ability. 

 

If you are right in front of the plug then there is a manual switch on the side of it that can be used to manually trigger the power of the plug.
