Best Smart Plug Recommendations For Home Assistant? My Two older Kasa Smart Plugs having issues!
Hi Everyone, I have two Kasa Smart Plugs HS100 & HS105 WiFi, I have owned for a few years never used much until last 5-6 months without issues for random projects. I liked it some much, that I setup Home Assistance and learning the way! The HS 100 that I was using to maintain battery on HASS Laptop, just stopped working not showing on app, tried removing and adding back to Kasa App no luck, I moved the HS 105 WiFi into area to use from another area out in shop that was working fine to occasionally power cycle a wireless camera to reset it, no issues and it was still live on the Kasa App. The HS 105 WiFi could not find WiFi in area I moved it to so I reset it in Kasa App and tried re-activating it with the inside WiFi and it also like the HS 100 would no longer allow me to set it up on the Kasa App. I have made sure both devices are not showing up anywhere and even uninstalled the Kasa App From my phone and re-installed it and still neither plug will find WiFi and Connect to the Kasa app, The Kasa App Finds the devices and connects to their internal WiFi and once I select a local WiFi to connect to it just spins and never connects and eventually fails!
(Note: I was not able to put in notes the hardware or Firmware versions since I can no longer see the devices on the Kasa App!)
Any Recommendations for a fix or a reliable Smart plug to use with Home Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.
