Model: Tapo C520WS

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.2.8

C520 Is not releasing IP address and requesting new DHCP address on hard power off.
This is over ethernet, not wifi.

expected behavior is that on hard power off, the device releases its IP and checks for new lease.

not seeing dhcp discover/offer/request messages in wireshark from any ethernet connected C520 cameras after hard power off and restart.

@Mvonk
Same issue here!!!

I bought these cams for use at my office --- configured them at home to make sure they work, now when I take them into the office they don't request a DHCP address and they don't work at all.

This is pretty annoying, I don't want to factory reset them and re-set them up again just to use at my office.
