Model: Tapo H100  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi all,

 

I had an Amazon purchased H100 for like 2 months, 3 can't recall!

 

suddenly the light turned orange one day and once I could reset it. Still failed after a couple of days and now - I reset it again in the hope I could update the firmware or something but not even the WiFi from the device shows up !!!! Which means I can't do anything with it !!

 

Sorry to say but you guys are so behind on your devices and a quick google search shows this hub IS trouble !!

 

honestly I still think  there could be some other hard reset or whatever I can do other than the 10 sec sync approach which works yes but the device broadcasts no WiFi whatsoever . I don't get it !!! I have dozens of devices and none ever failed at this level !

 

hoping for any guidance otherwise I will return this plus the 2 buttons I have which were the smartest thing you build but not covered by this weak hub 

 

thanks

Did the LED indicator on the hub show any changes during the reset? If the LED changes normally but the device does not broadcast the default Wi-Fi after the reset, there may be a hardware issue with the Wi-Fi module of the device. In this case, you may reach local TP-Link support or retailer to proceed with the warranty.
