Firmware update in Tapo Cameras breaks integration with Home Assistant

[onyx relic]

FYI, the 1.5.2 version of the firmware in Tapo C210 cameras breaks integration, specifically the communication with camera. You can downgrade the firmware version or use a HACS integration. More info in the Git issue:

I had this same problem with v3 of the camera, firmware 1.2.5 and the HACS integration. It appears on only one of my two cameras of the same build and firmware

Confirmed, the downgrade of the firmware makes the integration work for my cameras. Now I have disabled the firmware automatic update 🙂

Which hardware version do you have ? I cannot find the firmware for v3

Version 2.0

So you found the firmware on the GitHub txt file? I cannot find mine there…

No, I followed one of the links in the comments of the first link I posted

This is link https://download.tplinkcloud.com/firmware/Tapo_C210v2_en_1.5.1_Build_251023_Rel.49569n_up_boot-signed_1765463164265.bin

But is for hardware version 2.0

Yes thanks but I fear v3 does not update with this one. It is actually at version 1.2.5

Tapo again..;)

Yes, the next camera I buy it will be a Reolink, by the comments I read

Finally I was able to add it again after some offline time. Strange behavior
